American Gold Eagle coins are the official gold bullion coins of the United States of America. Each coin is required, by law, to contain only gold sourced from within the US. The proof version of the coin is struck using a special coining process that begins with unique blanks, struck multiple times with a die to create the impressive finish of a proof.
On the obverse side of all Proof American Gold Eagles is the image of Lady Liberty as she lights the way toward the future. The image, created by Augustus Saint-Gaudens in 1907, features Liberty striding forward into the future with the setting sun at her back, and a torch in her right hand to guide the nation forward.
The reverse side of all coins features the image of a male bald eagle returning to the nest, where a female is visible standing watch over the nest and its hatchlings. This depiction was created by sculptor Miley Busiek specifically for these coins.
Each coin available to you today is in PR70 condition, meaning it is a perfect coin. Each one has its full, original luster, and no blemishes, hairlines, contact marks, or detracting flaws. Deep-cameo coins have design sets with strong, frosted finishes, and background fields with a deeply-mirrored, clear appearance.
