Description

2016-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/4 oz, FS Ed Moy Signature, PCGS PR70. This exceptional 2016-W Proof Gold Eagle represents one of the finest examples of this modern classic. The coin features the iconic reverse design by Miley Busiek depicting an eagle landing on a branch, paired with Augustus Saint-Gaudens' timeless obverse Liberty. Struck at the West Point Mint, this quarter-ounce gold proof contains .9167 fine gold and represents the pinnacle of U.S. Mint coining artistry. The PCGS PR70 designation indicates this coin has achieved the highest possible grade, with flawless surfaces and exceptional eye appeal. The *FS* (Full Saturation) designation confirms the coin displays full, rich proof fields and frosted devices characteristic of the finest proof strikes. The Ed Moy signature on the reverse, representing the 38th Director of the U.S. Mint, adds numismatic significance to this already desirable issue. As a modern proof gold eagle in perfect condition, this coin appeals to collectors seeking high-grade examples of contemporary U.S. bullion coinage. The combination of perfect grading, West Point provenance, and the iconic design makes this an attractive offering for both type collectors and gold enthusiasts.
