Augustus Saint-Gaudens was a respected artist and sculptor in the early 20^th century. An Irish-American, he was approached directly by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1905 to help lead the charge in redesigning American coinage to match the president’s view of the nation’s rising international profile.

On the reverse of 2019 Proof American Gold Eagle Coins is the design of an American bald eagle family. The imagery includes one eagle in flight over the family nest while another is in the nest watching over a young hatchling.
