2006 American Gold Eagle $50 Coin (MS70 NGC Graded)

This item is a 2006 United States $50 American Gold Eagle coin, containing one troy ounce of fine gold. The coin is professionally encapsulated in a tamper-evident protective slab by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC). According to the certification label, the coin is graded as MS 70 (Mint State 70), which is the highest possible grade for a circulating strike coin, indicating it is theoretically perfect with no visible flaws under 5x magnification. The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic design of Lady Liberty walking forward with a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left, with the U.S. Capitol in the background. The coin exhibits a brilliant, even gold luster throughout with sharp, crisp detailing on the feathers and facial features. The protective holder is clear plastic with a white core insert, bearing the NGC hologram and serial number 1535186-013. The condition appears pristine as expected for the grade, with no signs of environmental spotting, scratches, or contact marks inside the holder. This piece represents the pinnacle of modern United States Mint craftsmanship and is a highly sought-after specimen for numismatic collectors.
