1999-W Gold $5 Commem George Washington MS-70 NGC
This United States five-dollar gold coin, minted in 1999, serves as a solemn tribute marking the 200th anniversary of the passing of George Washington. Struck from 0.2419 troy ounces of gold, this piece has achieved the highest possible grade of Mint State 70, representing a coin of flawless preservation and striking quality. The obverse features a profile portrait of George Washington, which was modeled after a famous 1785 bust sculpted by Jean Antoine Houdon. Surrounding this historic likeness are the traditional inscriptions of "Liberty" and "In God We Trust," alongside the 1999 year of issue. On the reverse, a detailed eagle is depicted perched with thirteen stars, representing the original American colonies. The reverse inscriptions clearly display the issuing nation, "United States of America," the national motto "E Pluribus Unum," and the face value of "Five Dollars."
