2012-W NGC PF-69 1 oz American Silver Eagle Proof Coin

In 1986, the US Mint first delivered the US Silver Eagle Coin and its gold counterpart into the bullion market as the debuting coin of the American Eagle Program. 

The US Silver Eagles are legal tender and feature captivating patriotic designs that reflect the nation's core values signed by Adolph A. Weinman and John M. Mercanti.

These coins, in particular, are Proof Silver Eagles issued in the West Point Mint and carry the “W” mint mark.

On the reverse, the Eagle’s depiction includes thirteen stars atop, representing the Thirteen Colonies. The national seal lies on its chest, arrows and olive branches on its talons, and a banner with the motto “E PLURIBUS UNUM” on its beak.

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.
