Description

2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1/10 oz NGC PF70. This exceptional example represents one of the finest specimens of the 2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo, a landmark issue in modern American coinage. The fractional-ounce format makes this an accessible entry point for collectors seeking genuine U.S. Mint gold coinage, while maintaining the iconic design that has made the Buffalo series a cornerstone of contemporary numismatics. The coin exhibits the full mirror fields and frosted devices characteristic of U.S. Mint proof coinage, with James Earle Fraser's classic American Buffalo reverse and Liberty profile obverse rendered in exquisite detail. The NGC PF70 designation indicates exceptional eye appeal with no visible imperfections under magnification, representing the highest standard of preservation for this modern issue. West Point Mint proof production of fractional gold pieces was limited, and examples achieving perfect PF70 grades remain highly desirable among both proof specialists and gold bullion collectors. This certified specimen offers both numismatic quality and intrinsic value, making it an attractive holding for the serious collector. NGC Certification Number: 399932
