1997-W 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle PR-69 PCGS
Struck at the West Point Mint, the 1997 quarter-ounce Gold American Eagle stands as a beautiful example of modern United States coinage. This ten-dollar denomination piece contains a quarter-ounce of gold with a purity of 0.9167. Marked with the distinctive 'W' mint mark, this coin represents a dedication to precise craftsmanship and classic American design motifs. The obverse of the coin showcases a celebrated depiction of Lady Liberty, adapted from the historic twentieth-century design by Augustus Saint-Gaudens. In this powerful image, Liberty is shown walking forward with strength, set against a backdrop of radiating sunbeams. The reverse presents a detailed scene of a male bald eagle in mid-flight, carrying an olive branch back to a nest that holds a female eagle and her young. This intricate design is accompanied by the traditional inscriptions of 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA', 'IN GOD WE TRUST', 'E PLURIBUS UNUM', and the coin's weight and face value.
