love this coin!!!!!

on 8/1/08 i purchased via live auction bidding at Heritage Auction Galleries a 1999-W MS70 PCGS $5 gold american eagle mint error coin. with a known population of less than 6000 coins and 8 graded MS70 by PCGS, this coin was the 1st time any in this grade were offered to the public for auction or sale. this coin is an unpolished proof die that has the "W" mintmark to show it is a proof coin minted at West Point. the dies were unpolished and the coins stuck with an uncirculated finish with the "W" mintmark. up to this date, all Unc. gold eagles were struck at the Philadelphia mint and only proofs at West Point. i am proud to be the new owner of this jewel and will treasure it for years.
