2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1/10 oz Red Book

Description

2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1/10 oz Red Book. This exceptional NGC PF70 example represents the finest quality achievable for this modern bullion proof issue. The 2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1/10 oz was produced at the West Point Mint as part of the American Buffalo Gold Proof Program, which honored the iconic design first introduced on the reverse of the 1913 Buffalo Nickel. The coin displays the characteristic sharp strike and pristine surfaces expected of a perfect Proof grade, with James Earle Fraser's celebrated design elements rendered in full detail. The obverse features a Native American profile, while the reverse showcases the powerful buffalo, both executed with the refined finish that distinguishes proof coinage. At 1/10 troy ounce of .9999 fine gold, this piece combines collectibility with intrinsic precious metal value. An NGC PF70 designation confirms this coin's exceptional quality and eye appeal, placing it among the finest examples certified. The Red Book reference in the lot title indicates this coin's recognition in standard numismatic reference materials. This modern classic represents an important entry point into gold collecting and proof coinage for both new and seasoned numismatists. NGC Certification Number: 399932
