Obverse
Turning to the obverse of the 2006-W Proof American Gold Eagle, you’ll find the timeless depiction of Lady Liberty, originally crafted by Augustus Saint-Gaudens in 1907. This iconic image captures Liberty striding forward with a torch and an olive branch, symbolizing freedom and peace.
Reverse
On the reverse side of the 2006-W 1 oz Proof Gold Eagle Coins, Miley Busieks evocative portrayal of the American bald eagle awaits. This poignant design features a family of eagles, with a female and hatchling nestled in the nest while a male eagle soars overhead, symbolizing strength and resilience.
History
The 2006 release of American Gold Eagles saw a notable surge in demand, particularly for the 1 oz Proof Gold Eagle. Interestingly, while demand for the four weights in the BU range declined, the three fractional weights in the Proof range also experienced a decrease. Notably, the 1 oz Proof Gold Eagle witnessed a significant increase in production, rising from 35,246 coins in 2005 to 47,092 coins in 2006.
