American Eagle Gold Coin History
The Gold Eagle is the official Gold bullion coin of the United States. Authorized under the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985, the American Gold Eagle was first released by the United States Mint in 1986. These stunning Gold coins are offered in 1/10 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/2 oz, and 1 oz denominations. The U.S. government guarantees these Gold coins. The coins have remained the most popular Gold coin in the world since their inception. Highly liquid Gold American Eagles can be found on the market and are easily bought and sold around the globe.
Original Gold Eagle Design
The Gold American Eagle design is based on the famous Saint-Gaudens Lady Liberty design that appeared on the final Gold Double Eagle. Replacing the Liberty Gold coin in 1907, the Saint-Gaudens Gold coin was born out of President Theodore Roosevelt’s desire for U.S. Gold coins to be a work of art. The 1907 Gold Double Eagle coin is considered one of the most beautiful American coins, and the present-day American Eagle receives the same sort of acclaim.
