Great coin

Was this review helpful? Yes/ No

I did a trade with apmex and to my surprise I got this coin. Had no idea that this was the first year that the gold eagle was issued. I love gold eagles and this is the best piece of gold I have ever had. I thought there was something wrong at first because I did not see a traditional year as I have never had a gold eagle with roman numerals. A quick call to customer service and to my surprise this was the first year issue.
