American Gold Eagle coins were first introduced in 1986. Each year the coins are struck in four weights, 1 oz, ½ oz, ¼ oz, and 1/10 oz, and minted in bullion, proof, and uncirculated conditions. The uncirculated coins were introduced in 2006, though mintage levels have dropped significantly for this coin in recent years. The 1/10 oz bullion coin is currently the most popular in the American Gold Eagle series, outpacing the 1 oz coin in production and sales for the first time in 2014.
The obverse side of each coin features Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ depiction of Lady Liberty, as first designed in 1907 for use on the $20 Gold Double Eagle. On the reverse is sculptor Miley Busiek’s image showing a family of bald eagles in its nest, with the male returning bearing an olive branch.
The United States Mint produces all American Gold Eagle coins at its West Point Mint in New York, with a few exceptions. Special-edition coins in the series are often struck at the Philadelphia Mint to ease the burden on the West Point facility.
