In 1993, demand for Proof American Gold Eagles remained relatively level across the board. The 1/2 oz Proof Gold Eagle was the only coin to experience an increase in demand, rising from 40,976 in 1992 to 43,819 coins. While the 1/2 oz gold coin saw a modest rise in demand, the 1/4 oz Proof Gold Eagle saw a modest increase of 195 coins.
For the other two weights in the series, the 1 oz gold and 1/10 oz gold coins, 1993 marked a significant decline in demand. The 1/10 oz gold coin fell from 64,874 in 1992 to 58,649 in 1993, while the 1 oz gold coin experienced an even greater drop. Sales of Proof 1 oz gold coins fell from 44,826 to 34,369.
In the obverse design of 1993 Proof Gold Eagles in this set, you will find the iconic image of Lady Liberty. Designed in 1907 by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, this visual captures Liberty’s figure in front-facing relief as she walks away from Washington D.C. with a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left.
For the reverse field of the Proof American Gold Eagle Coins, the mint features Miley Busiek’s depiction of a family of bald eagles. Here, a male is shown flying over the nest as a female guards young hatchlings within the nest.
These 1993 4-Coin Proof American Gold Eagle Sets come with a total of four coins in all, each one individually encapsulated and housed in a presentation box. The coin set features a Certificate of Authenticity and includes the 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz gold coins from 1993.
