The coin described is a 1999 American Gold Eagle, a prominent and desirable gold bullion coin minted by the United States. It is part of the Gold Eagles series and is valued at $10, signifying its denomination. This particular coin is crafted from a blend of precious metals, consisting of 91.67% gold, 3% silver, and 5.33% copper, which contributes to its durability and appeal. While the mint location is unspecified, the coin does not carry a mint mark, indicating that it could be from any of the U.S. Mint facilities but is likely from West Point. The coin's diameter measures 22 mm, a standard size for this denomination, and it has a proof finish, characterized by its brilliant, mirror-like surface and crisp details, making it highly sought after by collectors. With a limited mintage of just 34,417 pieces, this 1999 Gold Eagle proof coin is a rare find, adding to its potential value in the numismatic market. The absence of precise weight and other measurements in this case does not detract from its significance as a collectible item. Designed to represent both national pride and investment value, the American Gold Eagle continues to be a popular choice among coin enthusiasts and investors alike.
