Each 1987-W 1 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Coin comes impeccably displayed in a presentation box with a Certificate of Authenticity, showcasing the year of issuance. The iconic design is the result of the skillful work of two renowned sculptors and engravers: Augustus Saint-Gaudens for the obverse and Miley Busiek for the reverse.
Obverse
On the obverse, Lady Liberty stands strong and confident, holding a torch and an olive branch. Walking away from the Capitol, she is bathed in sunlight, with inscriptions of “LIBERTY” and the mintage year.
Reverse
The reverse side depicts a majestic male eagle soaring above its family, including a female eagle and hatchlings. Inscriptions include “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” along with the coin’s denomination and weight.
History
While the Proof American Gold Eagles haven’t reached the peak popularity of their debut in the 1980s, the 1987 1 oz Proof Gold Eagles still hold the second-highest mintage in program history. They follow the 1986 1 oz Proof Gold Eagle, making them a notable addition to any collection.
