1993 NGC PF-69 1 oz American Gold Eagle Proof Coin

The US Mint introduced the US Gold Eagles in 1986 as the premiere gold coin of the American Gold Eagle Collection. 

It consisted of a one-ounce 22k Gold Eagle bullion coin imprinted with Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ and Miley Busiek’s designs. 

Proof Gold Eagles were included in the series a few months after the official release. They enhance the Gold Eagle collection with a mirror-like luster that elevates their appearance and highlights the most intricate design details.

Today, SD Bullion sells 1993 Proof Gold Eagles, graded by NGC as PF-69 coins.

An NGC PF-69 Coin 

The Sheldon Grading Scale ranges from 1 to 70 and is used as a parameter for third-party services, like NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Company), to appraise and grade coins.

According to the scale, PF stands for Proof Coin, indicating a coin produced for collection purposes, which exhibits mirror-like surfaces in contrast with frosted design elements. 69 is the grade attributed to coins whose flaws are almost invisible.
