2017-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/4 Ounce, Ed Moy Signature

This exceptional 2017-W Proof Gold Eagle represents one of the finest examples of this modern classic. Struck at the West Point Mint and graded NGC PF 70 (Certificate #621291), this quarter-ounce gold proof achieves the highest numerical grade, indicating flawless surfaces and perfect striking quality. The coin features the iconic eagle design that has made American Gold Eagles among the most beloved bullion coins in the world.

The 2017 issue is particularly noteworthy as it was produced during the tenure of Ed Moy as Director of the U.S. Mint, a period marked by continued refinement of proof production standards. With a fineness of .9167 gold, this coin contains approximately 0.2500 troy ounces of pure gold, making it both a significant numismatic treasure and a tangible precious metal asset.

As a perfect proof specimen at the PF 70 level, this coin displays pristine fields and sharply struck devices characteristic of West Point's superior proof coinage. The combination of perfect grading, low mintage proof production, and current precious metals values makes this an attractive offering for both dedicated gold eagle collectors and bullion investors seeking premium quality examples.
