The Certified American $5 Gold Eagle 2022-W PR70 PCGS Advanced Release stands as a testament to the United States Mint's enduring legacy of producing gold coins that embody the pinnacle of numismatic excellence and artistic achievement. Since its inception in 1986, the American Gold Eagle series has been a cornerstone of the precious metals market, offering investors and collectors alike the opportunity to own a piece of American heritage crafted to the highest standards. The 2022-W edition of the series, minted at the prestigious West Point Mint, continues this tradition, further enriched by its classification as an Advanced Release by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS), indicating that it was among the first struck by the mint and subsequently submitted for grading.
The design of the Certified American $5 Gold Eagle 2022-W PR70 PCGS Advanced Release pays homage to the rich tapestry of American history and culture. The obverse features a rendition of Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic Liberty image, first introduced in 1907 for the $20 Double Eagle. This image of Lady Liberty, with flowing hair, holding a torch in one hand and an olive branch in the other, against a backdrop of the Capitol building and rays of sun, continues to be celebrated for its beauty and symbolism. The reverse, updated in 2021, showcases a detailed portrait of an American bald eagle, designed by Jennie Norris, which is a poignant representation of the nation's strength and freedom. This blend of historic and contemporary design elements captures the spirit of America and the evolution of its coinage.
The packaging of the Certified American $5 Gold Eagle 2022-W PR70 PCGS Advanced Release is meticulously designed to preserve and showcase the coin's flawless condition. Encased in a protective, tamper-proof PCGS slab, the coin is safeguarded against environmental hazards while providing clear visibility of its exquisite detail and grading information. This packaging ensures that the coin's PR70 grade, signifying a perfect specimen with no visible imperfections at 5x magnification, is preserved for future generations. Additionally, the Advanced Release designation is highlighted on the label, adding to its collectibility and appeal as a piece of numismatic history.
The PR70 grade awarded to the Certified American $5 Gold Eagle 2022-W by PCGS underscores the exceptional quality of this coin. Achieving such a grade means the coin exhibits flawless surfaces, sharp details, and a brilliant finish, reflective of the meticulous care and expertise applied during its minting process.
