If you are looking to own a piece of American symbolism, the 1988-P ¼ oz Proof American Gold Eagle coin may be a good choice. This gold proof coin is significantly smaller than traditional one ounce gold coins and thus may be more affordable to smaller collectors and investors. As a PCGS PR70 DCAM proof coin, this coin is also highly collectible.
Coin Highlights:
At the time of minting, gold prices averaged about $437 per ounce. Gold prices were once again moving higher after falling following a record in 1980. These ¼ oz American Gold Eagle Proof coins were the third edition of the American Gold Eagle Proof series. Because this edition was still relatively new, these coins may have an added collectability premium.
These gold eagle ¼ ounce proofs feature the famous Liberty design on the obverse with the eagle over next design on the reverse. The coin has multiple inscriptions including “LIBERTY, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN GOD WE TRUST, E PLURIBUS UNUM” and the coin’s mint year.
This iconic design symbolizes key American ideals of freedom, family and unity. It has stood the test of time and is still featured on American gold eagles today.
These coins also feature a proof finish. This means that the coin has been struck multiple times using a special die. The result is a coin with very clear details and a very sharp appearance. The coin’s finish is almost mirror-like and you may even be able to see your reflection on parts of the coin.
Adding even more value to these coins they have been assigned a grade of PR70 DCAM by PCGS. This means that these coins are flawless and are in brilliant, uncirculated condition. With any flaws accounted for during the grading process, you can buy these coins with confidence in their mint condition state as they have been assigned the highest grade possible with no flaws or defects.
We recommend considering the addition of these ¼ oz American Gold Eagle Proofs to your collection. Want to see what other proof coins might also fit into your collection?
