Description
# 1992 $5 Tenth-Ounce Gold Eagle, PCGS MS69. A pristine example of the American Gold Eagle series, this 1992 Philadelphia Mint tenth-ounce gold coin represents a key date in the modern American bullion program. Struck in 91.67% fine gold, this exquisite specimen showcases the enduring artistry of Augustus Saint-Gaudens' original design, beautifully interpreted by Miley Busiek. Graded a near-perfect PCGS MS69, this coin exhibits exceptional strike quality and preservation. With a total population of 1,264 coins graded, this example is among the finest known, ranking in the top tier of its mintage. The 209,300 coins produced in 1992 represent a relatively modest mintage for the series, enhancing its collectible appeal. Its technical specifications include a precise 3.39 grams of gold, 16.5mm diameter, and characteristic reeded edge. The coin's remarkable MS69 grade indicates virtually flawless surfaces with only the most minute imperfections preventing a perfect MS70 designation. Only 83 coins have been graded at this level or higher, making this an especially desirable specimen for the discerning Gold Eagle collector or investor. A superb representation of the American Gold Eagle tenth-ounce series from a notable year in modern numismatic history.
