The two smallest coins in the Proof American Gold Eagle Series often experience the greatest demand each year. However, with that popularity comes great swings in the mintage figure for these two fractional-weight coins as the overall demand for Proof Gold Eagles ebbs and flows. The 2001 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Coin is currently available to you for purchase online from JM Bullion with NGC certification.
Coin Highlights:
In 2001, the Proof American Gold Eagles retreated across the board. While the bullion coins also saw mintage figures recede after the fears of Y2K subsided, the Proof Gold Eagles have traditionally moved up and down in demand largely detached from the changing prices of gold or economic concerns.
The 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle suffered the second-largest drop in demand in 2001 behind only the 1/10 oz coin. The mintage of 25,613 coins in 2001 was the lowest figure to this point in the history of the 1/4 oz coin and reflected a drop of 10,423 coins from the 2000 issue of the coins.
On the obverse of the 2001 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Coin is a vision of Liberty unlike any other to grace American coinage. This design was originally created in 1907 by Augustus Saint-Gaudens and used on the $20 Gold Double Eagle from that date until 1933 when the US ended the production of circulation gold coins.
The reverse face of 2001 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Coins features a unique design of American bald eagles which is exclusive to the Gold Eagle Series. This design from Miley Busiek depicts a family at its nest, with the male in flight overhead holding a branch in its talons.
These 2001 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagles are available with a PF70 certification from the NGC. Coins with a PF70 grade have full, original mint luster and no detracting flaws. As UCAM specimens, these proofs have strong, frosted designs and deeply-mirrored, clear backgrounds.
