Product Details

The 1990 edition of this fractional U.S. Mint gold piece represents an enduring legacy in American coinage. Crafted with precision and notable for its smaller size, this tenth-ounce bullion coin carries the same iconic design as its larger counterparts, making it an accessible yet desirable option for both collectors and investors. Known for its rich heritage, this piece transports us back to a time when Lady Liberty was reimagined by the acclaimed artist Augustus Saint-Gaudens, an image that gracefully marries beauty with power and freedom.

Key Features:

  • Contains 1/10 troy ounce of pure gold.
  • Beautiful depiction of the classic Saint-Gaudens' Liberty design.

Designed in an era where precision and art influenced coinage, this gold piece holds a mirror to history. The obverse showcases the timeless Liberty with her flowing hair and torch raised, a symbol of enlightenment and progress. On the reverse, the noble male eagle carrying an olive branch protects a nest of hatchlings—an emblem of peace and familial protection, crafted by Miley Busiek. The meticulous artistry coupled with this coin's fractional size makes it both a testament to impeccable craftsmanship and a gold investment opportunity.

Each coin is minted with .9167 fine gold and includes additional metals for enhanced durability, ensuring it withstands the test of time while maintaining the warmth and hue of gold's natural luster. Known for its intricate detailing and high compatibility with global recognition, this coin also offers easy portability and secure storage, thanks perhaps to its modest size. Collectors and investors alike recognize its stability and potential for appreciation, particularly in times of market volatility.

Gold continues to be heralded as a safe haven and a hedge against inflation, and this remains especially true with this piece. Its historical significance is bolstered by its placement among the most revered bullion coins in the market, offering a unique intersection of collectible charm and strategic investment.
