This is the coveted 2006 1-Oz. American Gold Eagles 20th Anniversary Commemorative Set!
The Set consists of 3 coins:
2006 W $50 AGE 20th Anniversary MS70
2006 W $50 AGE 20th Anniversary PF70 UC
2006 W $50 AGE Reverse Proof 20th Anniversary PF70
The 20th Anniversary $50 Gold American Eagle Set was issued by the US Mint to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the popular gold bullion and collector coin. Each set contained three coins: the 2006-W Proof Gold Eagle, the 2006-W Uncirculated Gold Eagle, and the 2006-W Reverse Proof Gold Eagle.
The collectible proof and uncirculated coins contained in the set were available in other US Mint product offerings, but the 2006-W Reverse Proof Gold Eagle was unique to the set. The raised design elements of the coin are mirrored and the background fields are frosted. This is the reverse of the typical cameo proof finish. It was also the first time that the US Mint had used this type of reverse proof finish!
Of note: The 2006 W Reverse Proof $50 American Gold Eagle PF70 coin is now valued higher than the entire original three coin set! The 20th Anniversary $50 Gold American Eagle Sets went on sale at the United States Mint on August 30, 2006. They were originally priced at $2,610 with an ordering limit of ten sets per household and a maximum production of 10,000.
Please Note: All (3) competing coins in this elite $50 AGE 20th Anniversay Set end with an NGC certification numbered extension of 001!
