The US Mint first introduced the American Gold Eagle coin in October of 1986 which left the world universally amazed by its craftsmanship and beauty. While the bullion coins, which have gone on to become the Mint's best-selling collection of American coinage, were originally available in all four prescribed weights of 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz and 1/10 oz, the 1/4 oz gold coin remains one of its most significantly coveted coin due to its high demand amongst collectors and investors.

For 1989, the 1/4 oz American Gold Eagle coin did experience a noticeable dip in demand during its initial introduction due to high demand for the 1986 American Gold Eagle coin which was still being nabbed by the general public, however, it has seen an extraordinary rise.

When it comes to what is featured on the obverse, you will be treated to the standard design which is featured on all of the iconic American Gold Eagle coins, and for good reason. The Lady Liberty image remains one of the most historic images to ever be found on American currency in circulation and this design happened to be commissioned by the then president, Theodore Roosevelt. French sculptor and engraver, Augustus Saint-Gaudens is the mind behind the image and has gone on to become engraved in the sands of time for his majestic work.

For the reverse, you will find Miley Busiek’s work. This is the heraldic image of a family of American bald eagles which rest in a nest full of hatchlings. While the female counterpart protects her younglings, the male head flies overhead in all of its glory and splendor.
