The included Saint-Gaudens Label celebrates the man responsible for the obverse design of Liberty found on the American Gold Eagle. This image was initially created in 1907 by Saint-Gaudens to feature on the $20 Gold Double Eagle. The design was unlike any other of its day and helped launch a new era of American coin design which shook off the shackles of Greek and Roman-themed artwork for distinctly American imagery.

On the obverse of 2018 1 oz American Gold Eagle Coins is Saint-Gaudens’ Liberty design. This visual depicts a free and powerful Liberty as she walks toward the viewer with hair and robe flowing in the breeze. She holds a large torch aloft in her right hand to light the way into the future for the nation and carries a large olive branch in her left hand.

The reverse of American Gold Eagle coins includes a design of bald eagles. The bald eagles depicted here include a male flying over the nest as a female eagle guards a hatchling under her wing. Miley Busiek created this artwork in 1986 specifically for the Gold Eagle collection.
