American Gold Eagles
Introduced in 1986, the American Gold Eagles series is the United States' official gold bullion program. It was established under the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985, which mandates that the coins must contain gold sourced from American mines. The series has been a favorite among investors and collectors due to its guaranteed purity and weight, with each coin containing 1 troy ounce of pure gold at .9167 fineness. The program includes various denominations, but the 1 oz coin remains the most popular.

2025 1 oz American Gold Eagle Design
The obverse of the American Gold Eagle has featured Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic depiction of Lady Liberty every year since the series' inception in 1986. This design, originally created for the $20 Gold Double Eagle in 1907, is celebrated for its classical elegance and powerful symbolism. Lady Liberty stands confidently, holding a torch and olive branch, symbols of enlightenment and peace.

In 2021, the reverse design was updated for the first time in the program's history. The original reverse, created by Miley Busiek, depicted a family of eagles, symbolizing family and tradition. This was replaced by a striking new design by Jennie Norris, showcasing a close-up profile of a bald eagle. The detailed rendering captures the strength and determination of this American symbol, with every feather and feature meticulously crafted.
