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. Struck at the West Point Mint and bearing the signature of former U.S. Mint Director Ed Moy, this quarter-ounce gold piece exemplifies the highest standards of American numismatic artistry. The coin contains one-quarter troy ounce of .9167 fine gold and displays the iconic imagery that has made the American Gold Eagle series a cornerstone of precious metals collecting. Graded PCGS PR70, this specimen achieves the highest possible numerical grade, indicating absolutely flawless surfaces with exceptional eye appeal. The obverse presents Liberty in full detail, while the reverse showcases the majestic eagle design by sculptor Miley Busiek. The proof finish exhibits brilliant, reflective fields that contrast beautifully with the frosted design elements, demonstrating the superior quality control associated with West Point Mint production. The Ed Moy signature variant adds numismatic significance to this already desirable issue, making it particularly sought after by both gold bullion investors and serious proof coin collectors. A perfect example of modern American gold coinage at its finest. PCGS Certificate #599288
