The 2006 release of American Gold Eagle coins was one of the most important in the history of the series. 2006 marked the 20th anniversary of the series and was a popular date mark with collectors. It also marked the launch of a new option in the series as the US Mint introduced the new collectible Burnished Gold Eagles. Right now, 2006-W 1/10 oz Proof American Gold Eagles in perfect condition are available to purchase online at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 2006-W 1/10 oz Proof American Gold Eagle available here comes to you in a PCGS slab with a perfect grade. PR70 coins exhibit full, original mint luster and have no detractions of any kind present on the coins. DCAM designations stand for deep-cameo and refer to the presence of strong, frosted designs overlaying deeply-mirrored, clear fields.
In 2006, the 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagle continued a successive streak dating back to 1988 in which it was the best-selling weight in the Proof Gold Eagle Series. Notably, the 20th-anniversary release was also the second-to-last date the 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagle would enjoy this streak as it outsold the 1 oz coin and other weights again in 2007, but fell behind the 1 oz coin in 2008 and remained there in 2010 after the hiatus in coining in 2009.
Liberty features on the obverse of 2006-W Proof American Gold Eagles. This design comes from Augustus Saint-Gaudens and was first used on American coins in 1907. It features Liberty in front-facing relief as she strides toward you with a torch in one hand and an olive branch in the other.
A family of American bald eagles is present in the reverse design of the 2006-W 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagle. This design was created in 1986 exclusively for the Gold Eagle Series and shows a male eagle soaring over the nest as a female eagle guards the hatchling within.
