Flawless 1987 Gold & Silver Eagle Proof Set Signed by John Mercanti

In 1986, the United States Mint released its first modern gold and silver bullion coins: the Gold and Silver Eagles. This set brings together one Proof version of each coin struck in 1987, the second year of the series. Their mintages were significantly smaller, with just 147,498 One-Ounce Gold Eagle Proofs (298,792 fewer than 1986) and 904,732 One-Ounce Silver Eagle Proofs (542,046 fewer) minted.

Struck in a full ounce of 91.7% gold and 99.9% silver at the West Point and San Francisco Mints respectively, both coins are official U.S. legal tender and come certified by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) NGC as being in flawless Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70UC) condition, a distinction that means your perfectly-graded proofs will have ZERO imperfections — showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended.

What’s more, each coin will arrive sonically sealed in its own acrylic holder and encapsulated with an exclusive label sealed that was personally signed by John Mercanti, designer of the Silver Eagle reverse and 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint! A giant in the numismatic world, Mercanti has produced more coin and medal designs than any person in U.S. Mint history!
