This 1 oz $50 American Gold Eagle – Scruffy / Low Premium is offered primarily for its gold content and typically at a lower premium than BU examples. Coins may have scratches, contact marks, toning, spotting, rim wear, abrasions or other evidence of handling. These cosmetic conditions do not change the stated fine-gold content.
Date is our choice. Depending on the date, the coin may carry the Type 1 family-of-eagles reverse used from 1986 through part of 2021 or the Type 2 eagle-head reverse introduced in 2021. These coins are not sold as certified or collector-grade pieces.
