Description

# 2009-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1 oz First Strike. An exceptional PCGS PR70 DCAM First Strike specimen of the highly collectible American Buffalo gold proof issue, representing the pinnacle of numismatic quality and preservation. This pristine gold proof showcases James Earle Fraser's iconic Buffalo design in its most sublime form, struck at the West Point Mint in 99.99% pure gold. The First Strike designation indicates this remarkable coin was submitted to PCGS within the critical 30-day window from the U.S. Mint's initial release, adding significant provenance and collectibility. With a total population of just 3,092 coins graded at this perfect PR70 DCAM level, this example represents an extraordinary opportunity for the discerning numismatist. Technically precise, the coin features a 1 oz weight of 31.108 grams, a 32.7mm diameter, and a refined reeded edge. The 2009-W mintage of 49,306 pieces further underscores its desirability. Encapsulated by PCGS with certificate #15341932, this *Deep Cameo* proof exhibits extraordinary mirror-like fields and frosted devices that exemplify the highest standards of modern American coin production. Condition Census: A virtually perfect representation of the 2009-W Proof Gold Buffalo, combining exceptional technical quality, historical significance, and remarkable eye appeal. An essential acquisition for advanced gold coin collectors and investors seeking the absolute finest numismatic specimens.
