American Gold Eagle
The beauty and power of Liberty, captured in the graceful Striding Liberty design by Augustus Saint Gaudens for the 1907-1933 $20 U.S. Double Eagle gold coin is the basis for the American Gold Eagle coin. American Eagles use the durable gold standard established for gold coins circulating over 350 years ago. Each of these gold coins is minted in 91.67% fine gold. This creates harder coins that resist scratching and marring which can diminish resale value. These are the only gold coins whose quality and purity are guaranteed by the U.S. government. And by law, only gold mined in the U.S. is used in the minting of American Gold Eagles. It was introduced in 1986 and has four sizes, 1 oz., ½ oz., ¼ oz. and 1/10 oz. Please email our Sales Team
