Description

2018-W Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz, Ed Moy Signature, NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo

This exceptional 2018-W American Eagle gold proof represents the pinnacle of modern United States bullion coinage. The quarter-ounce denomination contains .9167 fine gold, offering a perfect balance between precious metal content and collectibility. The "W" mint mark denotes production at the West Point Mint, while the Ed Moy signature references the former Director of the U.S. Mint during the American Eagle program's earlier years, making this a historically significant piece.

The coin has been certified by NGC as PF70 Ultra Cameo, representing a perfect strike with exceptional eye appeal. The Ultra Cameo designation indicates deeply mirrored fields contrasting sharply with frosted design elements—a hallmark of premium proof production. This grade represents the highest possible numerical rating, indicating no post-mint imperfections and outstanding quality throughout.

The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic Lady Liberty design, while the reverse displays an eagle with shield and olive branch, both rendered with exceptional detail and finish quality. The 2018-W Proof Gold Eagle remains a sought-after issue among both bullion investors and serious proof collectors, particularly in this superior condition.
