Product Details

The 1 oz Gold American Eagle certified by PCGS in near-perfect mint state is a timeless addition to any collection or investment portfolio. Introduced by the United States Mint in 1986, this gold piece captures both the rich history and artistry associated with U.S. bullion coinage. Its design pays homage to one of America’s most iconic creations, featuring stunning imagery that appeals to both novice collectors and seasoned investors alike.

The obverse of this exquisite gold coin showcases the classic design created by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, depicting Lady Liberty in full stride with flowing hair, a torch uplifted in one hand and an olive branch in the other. This historic design, first used on the $20 gold pieces from 1907 to 1933, symbolizes the nation’s pursuit of peace and prosperity. The reverse, crafted by renowned sculptor Miley Busiek, features a family of eagles, highlighting values of family and strength.

Minted from .9167 fine gold, the Gold American Eagle is recognized globally for its unmatched quality and craftsmanship. Its production involves advanced minting techniques that ensure high relief and fine detail, which enhance its aesthetic appeal and market value. The coin is struck in 22-karat gold, an alloy that includes silver and copper, providing additional strength and resistance to scratches—a characteristic particularly revered by collectors and investors aiming for durability. With its grade of MS69 from the Professional Coin Grading Service, this piece represents excellence just shy of perfection, maintaining its status through rigorous evaluation and stringent standards.

As part of the inaugural series, this Gold American Eagle holds significant historical importance. In 1987, the second year of issue for American Eagles, the coin continued to gain traction as a cornerstone of modern U.S. bullion offerings, solidifying its place in precious metals portfolios worldwide. Its sustained appeal is a testament to the enduring allure of gold as an investment vehicle, revered for its role as a tangible asset and a hedge against inflation.

Gold remains a tried-and-true investment across the centuries, its stability unmatched by any other precious metal. Recognized not only for its intrinsic beauty but also for its global liquidity, this gold coin blends the vibrant history of America with the reliability of an investment-grade asset. This alloy’s long-standing significance, coupled with its magnificent design and impressive grade, makes it an attractive piece for anyone looking to expand their holdings.

Whether as the centerpiece of a collection or a strategic asset to diversify a portfolio, acquiring this Gold American Eagle is a decision underscored by longevity and value. The exquisite artistry and solid market position ensure it captures the interest of collectors and financial planners alike. We invite you to consider adding this historic gold piece to your collection today. Its timeless elegance and investment potential make it a coveted choice for those who appreciate the enduring value of rare precious metals.

My overall experience has been excellent. Great communication from the start. They let you know the status of your order in a timely manner. Quick shipment after payment clears. Excellent packaging. The fact that Bullion Standard sends a link to confirm whether I've received my product is also remarkable. You can tell they care about the customer, and are trustworthy and reliable, 10/10, would shop again (already have).

I always buy from momentum metals and jam bullion but decided to give you a chance. The coins were sub par and the gold coin was not to my liking
