American Gold Eagles

The United States of America is one of the largest coin collectors’ markets in the world. The Bullion Eagle was introduced by the US Mint in 1986 to meet the growing demand for bullion in America. The American Eagle, issued in both gold and silver, is a popular coin with both investors and collectors.

Why Should Gold Investors Invest in American Gold Eagles?

Since its initial minting in 1986, these coins have gained significant popularity and are now considered one of the top gold bullion options for investors worldwide.

A key factor contributing to their appeal among American investors is the assurance provided by the United States Government regarding the coin’s weight, purity, gold content, and exemption from VAT.

The National Bird of USA

Dating back to 1782, the bald eagle earned the esteemed title of the national bird of the United States. This distinction came about when it was immortalised, with its wings outstretched, on the Great Seal of America.

The 35th U.S. President, John F. Kennedy, once stated that the Founding Fathers made an appropriate choice when they selected the bald eagle as the emblem of the nation. The fierce beauty and proud independence of this great bird symbolise the strength and freedom of America.

The Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985

In 1985, Ronald Reagan, the 40th President of the United States, enacted a law that granted the U.S. Treasury the authority to commence the production of fresh bullion coins.

This legislation played a pivotal role in elevating the status of the American Eagle Gold Coin, helping it become one of the most sought-after gold bullion coins globally, particularly in the United States of America.

Obverse

The obverse maintains the tradition of featuring the portrayal of Lady Liberty created by the renowned American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens.
