With the release of 2021 American Gold Eagles at the midyear point, the United States Mint has introduced its new Type 2 reverse design element. This change in the reverse design marks the start of a new generation for the Gold Eagle Series as it jettisons its original design in use since 1986 and moves into the future with a bold new depiction of the American bald eagle.

Each 2021 1/2 oz American Gold Eagle Coin in this product listing comes to you with a perfect certification. The NGC assigns an MS70 grade to coins that exhibit full, original mint luster with no detracting flaws of any kind present on the coins. The included FDOI label indicates the coins were received by the NGC for grading within 24 hours of the US Mint’s initial release.

The new Type 2 release in the 2021 American Gold Eagle Series marks the start of a new chapter for the Gold Eagle Series. The reverse face of the coin now features the image of an American bald eagle’s head in left-profile relief. The 2021 release schedule started with the original design combinations in place, allowing the US Mint time to create the dies used in striking the new design and the time to replace the dies in its coining presses to launch production of the new imagery.

For the obverse side of the 2021 1/2 oz Gold Eagle Coin, the image of Lady Liberty continues to grace the specimens. In this depiction of Liberty’s full-length figure, she is shown walking toward the viewer with a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. The U.S. Capitol Building is visible at her feet in the background, with sun rays behind her figure and 50 stars around the design element.

In the reverse design of 2021 1/2 oz American Gold Eagle Type 2 Coins, the all-new bald eagle design debuts. This creation comes from Jennie Norris and depicts a bald eagle in left-profile relief with its stirring gaze fixed directly on the viewer.
