1999-W $10 Unfinished Proof Dies Gold Eagle MS70 PCGS

This gorgeous 1999-W $10 American Gold Eagle has graded MS70 from PCGS. Struck at the West Point Mint, with unpolished Proof Dies, this 1999-W U.S. Gold Eagle features crisp, well-struck devices on smooth, gleaming Gold fields. In 1999 the demand for $5 and $10 Gold Eagles skyrocketed, catching the U.S. Mint off guard. In an attempt to fulfill the demand the Mint started to strike Mint State Eagles with a West Point Proof Die. Many consider this to be in error as only Proof coins were to bear the ‘W’ mint mark, thus making this 1999-W $10 Gold Eagle in PCGS MS70 a true collector’s item. From an incredibly low mintage of only 10,000 $10 Gold Eagles using an unfinished Proof die, current PCGS population reports show that ONLY 108 graded MS70. From the high-point detail to the beautiful lustrous surfaces, this $10 1/4oz Gold Eagle is certain to please any numismatist or Gold collector!
