American Gold Eagle

.9167 Fine Gold (22 Karat)

1 oz American Gold Eagle (BU) Coin – Random Year

The American Gold Eagle stands as one of the most iconic and trusted gold coins in the world. First introduced by the United States Mint in 1986, it marked the nation’s return to producing gold coins after a 50-year hiatus. Struck from 22-karat (.9167 fine) gold, each coin carries both the artistry and assurance of the U.S. government, making it a favorite among investors and collectors alike.

Design Details

Obverse:
The front of each coin features Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ legendary image of Lady Liberty, originally created for the 1907 $20 Gold Double Eagle. Lady Liberty strides confidently forward with a torch and olive branch in hand, symbolizing enlightenment and peace — a design long regarded as one of the most beautiful in American coinage history.

Reverse:
Two distinct reverse designs have appeared in the Gold Eagle series:

  • 1986–2021: Miley Busiek’s family of bald eagles, representing unity and strength.

  • 2021–present: Jennie Norris’ close-up portrait of a bald eagle’s head, capturing focus and determination in striking detail.

Because this listing includes coins from random years, your order may feature either design — or both, if purchasing multiple coins.
