Product Highlights: 2016-W Standing Liberty Centennial Gold Coin Weight: 1/4 troy oz of .9999 fine (24k) gold Struck at the West Point Mint Graded NGC SP70, flawless specimen strike Obverse: Standing Liberty; Reverse: Eagle in flight Limited mintage, highly collectible SP70 is a grading designation used for specimen coins, primarily in U.S. numismatics. Here’s a detailed breakdown: SP stands for Specimen: Specimen coins are struck with a special process that falls between proof and business strike. They often have a frosted design on a mirrored background, but the fields are less reflective than a proof coin. SP coins are usually intended for collectors, not circulation. 70 is the grade on the 1–70 Sheldon scale: 70 is the highest possible grade, meaning the coin is flawless under 5x magnification. No marks, scratches, or imperfections are present. So, SP70 = perfect specimen coin, in flawless condition, with the special collector-oriented strike.
