Each 2020 1 oz American Gold Eagle Coin available to you in this product listing comes with a near-perfect certification from the NGC. Coins in Mint State 69 condition exhibit full, original mint luster with a maximum of two minor detracting flaws. Examples of acceptable flaws at this grade level include minuscule contact marks or hairlines and must be located outside of the primary focal points of the coin.

Following the grading process at the NGC, the coins are sealed inside of a protective plastic slab for shipping and sale. The slab protects the condition of the coins for decades to come. The NGC issues grades for gold coins on a scale of 1 to 70 that is known as the Sheldon numeric scale. A grade of 1 is the lowest possible grade, while 70 represents a perfect grade.

Augustus Saint-Gaudens created the image of Lady Liberty featured on the obverse of 2020 American Gold Eagle Coins. This design was created in 1907 by Augustus Saint-Gaudens as one of four concepts he created at the behest of President Theodore Roosevelt for use on American coins. His designs were considered for use on four gold coins and the US penny. This image of a powerful, free Lady Liberty appeared on the $20 Gold Double Eagle from 1907 to 1933.

American bald eagles have been the official emblem of the United States since 1792 when the Founding Fathers selected it as the national symbol. In this design from Miley Busiek, an eagle nest holds a female eagle and young hatchling as a male flies overhead.
