2026 Ascension G$5 Eagle Reverse PF69 $7000 This exceptional 2026 Ascension G$5 Gold Eagle features a stunning Reverse Proof finish, expertly graded PF69 by NGC. Commemorating the USA 250th anniversary, this specific coin is distinguished by a unique USA 250 privy mark on the obverse, celebrating the Sestercentennial of the United States. As a First Day of Issue release, it represents the very first batch of coins struck and certified, ensuring maximum historical significance and collector appeal. The Reverse Proof finish provides a dramatic aesthetic, where the design elements are mirror-like and the fields are frosted, offering a sharp contrast to the traditional proof strike. Housed in a secure Heritage Coins holder, this rare gold piece is a premier acquisition for numismatists looking to secure a cornerstone of the 2026 commemorative program. Condition: The item is graded as PF69 (Proof 69), which indicates a near-perfect specimen with only minuscule imperfections visible under magnification, maintaining full original luster and sharp details. The mint is not explicitly stated on the holder as a traditional US Mint branch, but it is identified as part of the Ascension series featuring a USA 250 Privy mark, likely produced by a private or boutique minting facility specializing in commemorative bullion. The metal content for a G$5 Eagle of this type is typically 1/10th ounce of .9167 fine gold (22-karat gold), a standard weight for American Eagle gold coins. Historically, this coin is a 2026 commemorative release celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States, marked by the "First Day of Issue" designation and the USA 250 Privy mark. The collector value is driven by its modern rarity, the unique "Reverse Proof" finish, and its association with the American Sestercentennial, though the $7,000 asking price is significantly higher than the $3,500 retail price listed on the slab and far exceeds the intrinsic gold value. The strike type is a Reverse Proof, characterized by frosted fields and mirrored devices, which is the opposite of a standard proof strike. The grading is officially certified as REVERSE PF 69 by a third-party grading service, as shown by the serial number 8681452-003. gold coin, numismatics, American Eagle, first day of issue, reverse proof, PF69, slabbed coin, collectible, investment, precious metals, gold bullion, coin grading, heritage coins, USA 250 privy, 2026 ascension gold eagle coin, 2026 ascension gold, graded gold coin, PF69 reverse proof, rare gold coin, numismatic investment, american eagle gold, first day of issue coin, USA 250 privy, heritage coins gold Bidder is fully responsible for: - Determining what an item is worth to you - Evaluating the condition and authenticity of items - Making informed bidding decisions -BIDDER/BUYER To Determine items Condition, Completeness, Authenticity, and Grade. - Fulfillment of contract of bid, understands there is no refunds, or chargebacks items are "As Is"
