The world’s foremost gold bullion coin
With more than 22 million troy ounces sold since 1986, American Eagle Gold Bullion Coins are among the world’s leading investment grade gold bullion coins. American Eagles use the durable 22-karat standard established for gold circulating coinage over 350 years ago. They contain their stated amount of pure gold, plus small amounts of alloy. This creates harder coins that resist scratching and marring, which can diminish resale value. American Eagle Gold Bullion Coins are available in four sizes: one ounce, one-half ounce, one-quarter ounce, and one-tenth ounce.
Minted to exacting standards, the obverse (front) design is inspired by what’s often considered one of America’s most beautiful coins: Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ celebrated $20 gold piece, minted from 1907-1933. Legacy details have been restored for the obverse design include modifications to the Capitol Building, stars, torch, sun rays and other design elements based on the original bronze cast.
