The 2007 Proof American Gold Eagle Coins experienced an increase in demand on the back of surging gold prices. The price of gold rose by $200 per ounce during 2007 and would continue upward in the years to come. However, 2007 was one of the final years in which this would benefit the collectible version of the Gold Eagle coins.

Many of the Proof American Gold Eagle Coins hit mintage highs for the 2007 release which hadn’t been seen since the 1990s. In the case of the 1/4 oz Proof Gold Eagle, the mintage of 46,189 coins in 2007 was the highest this weight had seen since 1995 when 47,526 coins were issued. While the 1995 coin had the benefit of a commemorative 10th-anniversary release, the 2007 coins shot higher on the strength of rising gold prices.
Rising gold prices in 2007 were enough to propel the Proof American Gold Eagle coins higher across all four weights, even in the face of competition from the new Burnished American Gold Eagle. The latter coin was introduced in 2006 and available as a collectible coin with the same 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz versions.
On the obverse of 2007 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Coins is the vision of Lady Liberty. This inspiring design reflects the strength and confidence of the nation as it emerges on the international stage as a power in the 20th century. Liberty guides the nation forward with a torch in one hand and an olive branch in the other.
The reverse of 2007 Proof American Gold Eagle Coins features a design of American bald eagles. In this particular design, a male eagle is captured flying over the nest while a female eagle protects a hatchling under her wing within the nest.
All of the 2007 1/4 oz Proof Gold Eagles listed here are in PF70 condition. These are perfect coins with full, original mint luster and no detracting flaws. The UCAM label denotes the presence of contrasting strong, frosted designs and deeply-mirrored backgrounds.
