American Gold Eagle coins are available in proof, bullion, and uncirculated version. The bullion coin is the only product in the series that has been struck every year since 1986 when the coins were introduced. The uncirculated coin was just unveiled in 2006 when the coin program reached its 20th anniversary. The Proof American Gold Eagle has been struck every year since introduction, with the exception of 2009.
On the reverse side of every coin in the series is the image of a bald eagle returning to the nest, where another stands guard over a group of hatchlings. Sculptor Miley Busiek designed the image in 1985 specifically for use on these coins.
Augustus Saint-Gaudens, the man responsible for the finest coin design in American history, created the image of Lady Liberty used on the reverse. His image first appeared on the $20 Gold Double Eagle, and was revived in 1986 for use on the nation’s official gold bullion coin series.
Each coin available to you through this listing has a perfect PF70 grade, meaning it still has its full, original luster. Additionally, you’ll find no blemishes, contact marks, or detracting flaws on the coin’s surface. The ultra-cameo designation identifies a coin whose design set appears to float above the background field.
