1999 NGC MS70 $5 Gold American Eagle with W
2750 USD
It is widely believed, due to incredible demand for gold bullion experienced during 1999, an unusual error or variety coin was created. The 1999-W Gold Eagle Struck with Unfinished Proof Dies are bullion coins that included the “W” mint mark below the date. Although not every collector is aware of these unusual coins, they represent a major rarity within the American Gold Eagle series. It is generally believed that the dies intended for striking proof versions of the coin were inadvertently placed into service for bullion coins. These dies did not receive the final finishing treatment which results in coins struck with a cameo finish, however the coins did include the “W” mint mark. The mistake was not discovered until early 2000. The total number of coins that were minted is still a mystery. However, only 403 pieces have been graded MS70 by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation. This is a key coin in the series and a must own for any collection.

- The reverse features a male bald eagle bringing an olive branch to his nest. In the nest is a female eagle awaiting with her young. The obverse of the coin showcases the design of Lady Liberty walking confidently against the sun’s rays. This image was adapted from the famed Augustus Saint-Gaudens.
