The 1988 quarter-ounce iteration of the renowned Gold American Eagle coin is a testament to the rich history and exceptional craftsmanship of the United States Mint. Crafted from 22-karat gold, this exquisite piece represents not only a wise investment in precious metals but also a unique collectible for those with an appreciation for American heritage and artistry. Adorned with the iconic depiction of Lady Liberty on one side and a family of eagles on the other, this coin bridges the gap between historical significance and modern appeal. Its year of minting, represented as MCMLXXXVIII, adds an extra layer of allure, capturing the essence of the late 1980s within its golden confines.
Key features of this coin include:
At the heart of this coin's design is the artistic genius of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, whose depiction of Lady Liberty strides forward, torch in hand, illuminating the path to freedom and prosperity. On the reverse side, sculptor Miley Busiek's portrayal of a male eagle arriving at its nest, where a female eagle and her hatchlings await, symbolizes American family values and the nation's aspirations. These visuals are not only striking but serve as reminders of the values cherished throughout U.S. history. The intricate detailing and layered symbolism make this piece a focal point for any numismatic collection.
The production of these gold pieces is steeped in quality and precision, with the United States Mint maintaining exceptional standards in every aspect. Composed of 91.67% pure gold, alongside elements of silver and copper, the composition enhances the coin's durability and iconic appearance. This blend, paired with meticulous minting techniques, ensures that each coin is a durable yet beautiful product, appealing to both bullion investors and collectors seeking a touch of elegance in their collections.

1988 1/4 Oz Gold American Eagle - BU (MCMLXXXVIII) 
Bullion Standard out of all the companies I researched offer the best spots and prices. My only complaint is I wish I had found this company a long time ago as it would have saved me a lot of money. They offer a wide selection for all your bullion needs. Items are packed with great care and shipping is fast. I highly recommend Bullion Standard for all your bullion needs and quit getting ripped offer by the " big guys" . I also recommend enrollment in Pro for the awesome extra savings on your purchases.
Recommend this Company I am a great fan of Bullion Standard and have highly recommend this company for the spots and prices of all items. All items were well packed and shipping was quick. I had one issue with processing a purchase online and have been helped by customer service. Another time I paid the higher price since purchase was after hours...my lack of patience sometimes. All items I have purchased had the best prices out of dozens of companies I researched. I could not be more pleased even with a couple of bumps along the road. The quality, quantity and selection is great though if I had one request is that you offered 5 oz silver bars!!
