Gold collectors who seek out the Proof American Gold Eagle each year will find four options waiting for them. Since 1988, the US Mint has issued the Proof Gold Eagle in 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz coins. Among these four options, the 1/4 oz Proof Gold Eagle and the 1/10 oz coin are typically the most popular. These two weights had the highest mintage figures in 1992, with the 1/10 oz coin at 64,874 and these 1992 1/4 oz Proof Gold Eagles at 46,269.
All of the 1992 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Coins in this listing are available to you as perfect specimens. The NGC certified each coin as PF70, which indicates the presence of full, original mint luster with no detracting flaws.
The ultra-cameo, or UCAM, designation is reserved for proof coins with beautiful visual contrasts. The design sets have a strong, frosted matte appearance overlaying the deeply-mirrored, clear background field.
On the obverse of all Proof American Gold Eagle coins is Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ Liberty design. He was commissioned to create this design in 1905 by President Theodore Roosevelt as part of a greater movement to revitalize American coin designs in the 20th century. Saint-Gaudens’ Liberty was the first of the new designs and featured on the $20 Gold Double Eagle from 1907 to 1933.
The reverse of all 1992 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Coins features a family of bald eagles. Designed for the Gold Eagle in 1986, Miley Busiek came up with an image depicting a female eagle guarding hatchlings in a nest as a male eagle flies overhead.
