2000 NGC PF-70 1 oz American Gold Eagle Proof Coin
Proof Gold Eagles are 22k gold coins stamped with the legendary Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ design, originally imprinted on 1907 $20 Double Eagle Gold Coins, and Miley Busiek’s reverse design.
Because of their proof finish, they exhibit a mirror-like luster that enhances their appearance and highlights the most intricate design details.
The US Mint first released US Gold Eagles in 1986 for the premiere of the American Gold Eagle Collection. Proof Gold Eagles were still included in the series in 1986; in 2000, the US Mint delivered 433,319 units.
