2015 1 oz American Gold Eagle MS-70 NGC (Early Releases)

I examined every part of this coin and found it to be completely flawless. It definitely deserved the highest grade designation. Well worth the price. The quality and authenticity guarantee make this great deal for investors and collectors.

This review is for the 2015 1 oz Gold American Eagle MS-70 NGC (Early Releases): It was mistakenly entered under the 1/4 oz Gold American Eagle. I bought this product to compare it to standard Gold Eagle coin condition. It was no better than most in my small collection, and worse than one standard issue without a 70 rating. The edge of the reeding on the obverse side, under the L in the word Gold, is slightly mangled. Perhaps in minting or perhaps it was dropped. The other minor imperfections seem unavoidable. I spoke with APMEX about the imperfection, wanting to know if the mangled reeding disqualifies it a "perfect" coin, rated a 70 out of 70. They promised a call back from an expert to provide guidance on whether I should accept the coin or exchange it. I did not get the call. My conclusion: forget rated coins unless it has established humanistic value (due to rarity). I've decided to stick with bullion that is unrated. - See more at: http://www.apmex.com/product/84885/2015-1-4-oz-gold-american-eagle-bu/reviews#product-reviews
