A Boxed 2008 W Proof Gold Eagle With Its Certificate
The 2008 proof gold American Eagle in this listing is a 1 oz U.S. Mint coin of .9167 fine gold with a mirror-like proof finish and a $50 face value. It is ungraded and comes as the Mint issued it, in the original presentation box with a Certificate of Authenticity (COA). The W mint mark identifies West Point as the facility that struck it.
Sunrise Behind Lady Liberty
The obverse shows Lady Liberty marching forward as the sun rises behind her, with LIBERTY across the top and the 2008 date at lower right. On the reverse, a male eagle flies over the nest while the female cares for the young, surrounded by UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, the weight and the denomination. A proof finish gives these designs frosted relief against highly polished fields, a look created by striking specially prepared blanks with polished dies.

Boxed Proof Prices Side by Side
Ungraded proofs in original packaging are quoted as the spot price of gold plus a collector premium, and each dealer sets that premium. Some post reduced per-coin prices for larger quantities, and some publish what they will pay to buy coins back. Bullion Hunters puts those numbers in one place.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 2008 W proof Gold Eagle graded?
No. This version is ungraded and stays in its original U.S. Mint box with the Certificate of Authenticity. Graded examples have been examined by a service such as NGC or PCGS and sealed in that service's holder.
How is the price of a 2008 proof Gold Eagle determined?
Dealers price it from the spot value of its gold plus a premium for the proof finish, the year and the original packaging. The premium varies by dealer and quantity, so comparing published prices is the simplest way to see current offers.
