BGASC has the 2008-W 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Coin available to you for purchase online with its original US Mint packaging. Each coin is housed in a display box that includes a Certificate of Authenticity. The 2008 release saw a significant decline in mintage from more than 46,000 coins the previous year and was also the last uninterrupted issue as the mint suspended Proof Eagles in 2009.

Obverse

The obverse of the 2008-W Proof American Gold Eagle Coins boasts the remarkable presence of Lady Liberty. A creation by the esteemed artist Augustus Saint-Gaudens, this iconic portrayal presents Liberty in all her glory, confidently advancing forward. Illuminated by radiant sun rays and encircled by a constellation of stars, she carries a torch in one hand, symbolizing enlightenment, while extending an olive branch in the other, representing peace and unity.

Reverse

Nestled on the reverse of the 2008-W 1/4 oz Proof Gold Eagle Coins is a captivating scene showcasing the cherished bond of an American bald eagle family. As the male eagle soars proudly above, the female eagle stands watch over the nest, ensuring the safety and well-being of the adorable hatchlings in this touching design.

History

The bald eagle gained prominence during the American Revolution in the late 18th century. It was chosen as a symbol for the newly formed United States of America because of its association with freedom, strength, and independence. In 1782, the bald eagle was officially adopted as the national emblem of the United States.
