2006-W NGC PF-69 1 oz American Silver Eagle Proof Coin

American Silver Eagles, the official silver coins of the US, are made from 99.9% fine silver and hold a USD 1 face value. 

They stamp emblematic patriotic symbols designed by Adolph A. Weinman and John Mercanti, the 12th Chief Engraver of the US Mint. 

The US Mint crafts Proof Silver Eagles in addition to standard bullion coins. These proof coins showcase flawless aesthetics, exceptional precision, and a mirror-like finish that highlights every intricate detail of the design elements.

The Proof Silver Eagles issued in the West Point Mint are imprinted with the “W” mint mark.

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, which stands for 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.
