Overview

The American Gold Eagle is a gold coin guaranteed by the United States government as legal tender. Though it is marked as having a face value of $50 USD, it is in fact valued based upon the market price of its gold content, which is much higher. The American Gold Eagle coin is a popular choice for precious metal investors because of its beauty, exacting craftsmanship, and because it is crafted from gold that has been mined in the United States.

American Gold Eagle gold coins are comprised of 22 karat gold, meaning they are durable. Since they are stamped in English and guaranteed by the US government, they are exceedingly tradable and reliable as an investment. Furthermore, their status as IRS 1099B Brokerage reporting exempt make them a sound choice for a precious metal IRA.

Brought back into production because of the Bullion Coin Act of 1985, American Gold Eagle coins were first publically sold in 1986. They have quickly become the most popular bullion coin in the world and more than 12 million have been minted and sold.

Their design is based upon one originally commissioned by President Theodor Roosevelt in an attempt to equal the exquisiteness of Ancient Roman and Greek coins. One side features Lady Liberty with an olive branch and a torch in her hands, while the obverse side is stamped with a male eagle carrying home an olive branch to a waiting mate and eaglets. Renowned artists Miley Busiek and Augustus Saint-Gaudens crafted the designs.

The overall weight of a 1 oz American Gold Eagle coin is 1.0909 troy oz with one ounce of gold content. They are sold for safekeeping in tubes of 20 coins, easily identified by their red caps.
