On the obverse of 2018 ¼ oz American Gold Eagles is the image of Liberty by Saint-Gaudens. The Irish-American artist was approached in 1905 by President Theodore Roosevelt to help lead a program to revamp American gold coin design. His image of Liberty features the goddess of Liberty walking forward from the nation’s capital city with a guiding light torch held in her right hand and the olive branch of peace in her left.

The reverse of the American Gold Eagle coins features Miley Busiek’s design. A respected artist with numerous public and private pieces, Busiek created this image exclusively for the Gold Eagle in 1986. It features a male bald eagle flying over the nest with an olive branch as a female eagle guards the hatchling below.
