1991 $50 Gold American Eagle 75% Reverse Filled Dies

obvspacerev

indentThis 1991 $50 Gold American Eagle was authenticated and certified by NGC as a Reverse Filled Dies mint error. It is in gem mint state condition and major mint errors on gold coins, such as this one, rarely escape the mint and are discovered by collectors.

indentAlthough struck thru's are readily available on U.S. coins in lower denominations, and sometimes on U.S. gold coins as well, the struck thru portion is almost always a very small section of the coin. The struck thru area is either grease, debris, string, or a small foreign particle that stuck to the die.

indentThis 1991 $50 Gold American Eagle is the most dramatic struck thru that I have ever seen on a modern gold coin. It is 75% struck thru, affecting most of the lettering and most of the design of the eagles.

indentThis is an amazing and dramatic major mint error on a U.S. $50 Gold American Eagle. It belongs in a collection of U.S. gold coins or major mint errors.

Here is a comparison with a normal
