Description
2006-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/4 oz, NGC PF70. This exceptional 2006-W Proof Gold Eagle represents the finest quality available for this popular fractional gold issue. Struck at the West Point Mint and certified by NGC at the coveted PF70 grade, this coin exhibits the sharp striking detail and mirror-like fields characteristic of modern American proof coinage at its absolute best. The reverse features John Merkanti's iconic eagle design, while the obverse displays Augustus Saint-Gaudens' celebrated Lady Liberty. As a quarter-ounce gold proof, this coin contains .2419 troy ounces of pure gold and remains a cornerstone piece for collectors of modern U.S. gold coinage. The PF70 designation indicates no visible imperfections under magnification, representing the highest standard of preservation. The 2006 vintage falls within a period of strong collector demand for fractional gold eagles, making this certified example particularly desirable for both seasoned numismatists and those building comprehensive proof sets. NGC Certification Number: 99986
