The smallest coin in the American Gold Eagle Series is the 1/10 oz gold coin. Introduced in 1986 when the BU Gold Eagle Series was launched by the United States Mint, the 1/10 oz gold coin has seen its mintage levels ebb and flow over the course of time. These ebbs and flows often coincide with economic and market factors. Right now, 2008 1/10 oz American Gold Eagle Coins are available to purchase online at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each of the 2008 1/10 oz American Gold Eagle Coins in this product listing come in protective plastic flips for delivery. These coins come from the 23rd issue date in the series and were released during a period of rising and falling demand from one year to the next.
The 2008 release of 1/10 oz Gold Eagles came as the Great Recession was setting in across the global marketplace. Thanks to a surge in demand as the Great Recession picked up steam, the 2008 coin saw its mintage figures finish nearly two times higher than the 2007 coin, but it was a short-lived rally. The mintage would fall dramatically the next year as investors focused intently on the 1 oz gold coin for the next several years.
The obverse of 2008 1/10 oz Gold Eagle Coins comes with an image of Liberty. Her full-length figure shown here is a front-facing effigy from Augustus Saint-Gaudens that was created in 1907 and used on the $20 Gold Double Eagle coin until 1933. In this design, she is shown walking toward the viewer with a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left.
On the reverse side of 2008 American Gold Eagle Coins is the original, exclusive design of bald eagles for the series. Miley Busiek created this visual design element in 1986 with a male eagle soaring over the family nest as a female eagle guards hatchlings within the nest.
