The 1992 production year of the Proof American Gold Eagle was one of immense transition. For starters, the coins saw a significant drop in production across all four weights in the proof versions. The 1/2 oz Proof American Gold Eagle saw its production drop 12,000 coins from the year before.
Across the greater American Gold Eagle series, the US Mint made a major adjustment in the date marks issued on its coins. Since the coin’s introduction in 1986, the US Mint had used Roman numerals, but in 1992 it switched to Arabic numbering.
The 1992-P 1/2 oz Proof American Gold Eagle coins in this listing from JM Bullion boast perfect certification levels from the PCGS. Coins in PR70 condition exhibit full, original mint luster and no detracting flaws of any kind.
Coins with a Deep-cameo finish have a unique visual appearance. The strong, frosted finish on the Liberty design give it hte impression of floating above the deeply-mirrored, clear background field.
On the obverse you’ll find the image of Liberty from Augustus Saint-Gaudens, and originally featured on the $20 Gold Double Eagle from 1907 to 1933. Meanwhile, the reverse features the family of nesting bald eagles from Miley Busiek. These two depictions have featured on the obverse and reverse of the coin since its 1986 introduction.
