Description

2016-W Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz, Ed Moy Signature, NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo

This exceptional 2016-W Proof Gold Eagle represents one of the finest examples of America's premier gold bullion coin program. Struck at the West Point Mint during a year of significant numismatic interest, this quarter-ounce gold proof showcases the iconic design by Augustus Saint-Gaudens that has graced American coinage for over a century. The obverse features Lady Liberty in full stride, while the reverse displays an eagle at rest, a timeless composition that remains beloved by collectors worldwide.

Certified by NGC as PF70 Ultra Cameo, this coin represents the highest achievable grade, indicating flawless surfaces with exceptional contrast between the deeply mirrored fields and frosted design elements characteristic of modern proof coinage. The "Ultra Cameo" designation reflects the particularly strong visual appeal of this specimen, with dramatic cameo contrast that elevates it among the finest proofs of the issue. The Ed Moy signature variant adds historical significance, commemorating the tenure of the former U.S. Mint Director.

With NGC Certificate Number 570536, this piece combines technical perfection with the enduring appeal of gold Eagle proofs. The combination of perfect grading, the scarce signature variant, and the inherent value of one-quarter ounce of pure gold makes this an attractive offering for both proof specialists and precious metals investors seeking numismatic quality.
