2008-W 1/4 oz Gold Buffalo MS-69 NGC (Early Releases)
In 2008, the United States Mint produced a special fractional edition of its popular gold series, featuring a distinct burnished finish. This quarter-ounce coin carries a face value of 10 Dollars and is composed of extremely pure 0.9999 fine gold. With a limited mintage of just 9,949 pieces for this specific size, it represents a particularly scarce issue for enthusiasts studying modern American coinage. The obverse displays a powerful portrait of an American Indian, a celebrated design originally created by James Earle Fraser. Accompanying this profile is the word LIBERTY, the year 2008, and the 'W' mintmark indicating its origin at the West Point Mint. The reverse showcases the iconic American Buffalo, standing tall alongside the inscriptions IN GOD WE TRUST and E PLURIBUS UNUM. The lower edge notes the weight and purity, reading 1/4 OZ. 0.9999 FINE GOLD, alongside the 10 Dollar denomination.
