Description

2017-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/4 oz, Ed Moy Signature, NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo. This exceptional 2017-W Proof Gold Eagle represents one of the finest examples of this modern classic. Struck at the West Point Mint, this quarter-ounce gold coin features the iconic design of Liberty in flight on the obverse and an eagle with shield on the reverse. The coin bears the signature of Ed Moy, the 38th Director of the U.S. Mint, whose tenure was marked by significant innovations in American coinage. Graded NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo (Certificate #621291), this specimen achieves the highest numerical grade possible, indicating flawless surfaces with exceptional eye appeal. The designation of Ultra Cameo reflects the dramatic contrast between deeply mirrored fields and frosted design elements, creating the visual distinction that collectors prize in modern proof coinage. The 1/4 oz denomination contains one-quarter troy ounce of pure gold, making it an attractive option for both numismatic collectors and precious metals investors. The 2017-W Proof Gold Eagle remains a popular issue among modern gold collectors, particularly in premium grades such as this. This example's perfect grade and superior eye appeal make it an outstanding addition to any collection focused on 21st-century American gold coinage.
