From the first year of issue, this 1986 $50 American Gold Eagle is very much deserving of its perfect grade of a flawless MS70 by PCGS. This amazing Gold Eagle exhibits fiery original mint luster. The extremely-smooth surfaces shine with clarity and beauty with devices that are powerfully-struck with full, elaborate detail. The lines on Liberty's hair and dress are especially crisp and well-defined, as are the features of her face. The bright, gleaming fields shine with an impressive yellow-gold hue, giving this Eagle exceptional eye-appeal. Gold American Eagles appeal to both investors and collectors alike. Minted in 22-Karat Gold, American Eagle Gold coins are guaranteed by the U.S. government in weight, content and purity. The classic and beautiful obverse (front side) design of Lady Liberty recalls a golden age of coin artistry. This Liberty design has been a favorite since its first use in 1907 on the $20 Gold St. Gaudens Double Eagle.
