The US Mint celebrates 2022 with the latest American Gold Eagle coins.
In 1985 the “Gold Bullion Coin Act” was signed by former President Ronald Reagan to regulate the production and set the value, dimensions and design of the bullion series. The gold used in the minting of the coins was required to originate from newly mined domestic sources.
In 1986, the gold eagle bullion series was introduced by the United States Mint to honor independence and celebrate freedom, becoming a viable alternative to other international gold bullion series popular at the time - South African Krugerrand and Canadian Maple.
Made of 91.67% pure gold, the American Gold Eagle holds a legal tender value backed by the US Government.
The obverse features an adaptation of Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ gold eagle design with Lady Liberty walking with confidence against the sun’s ray surrounded by fifty stars, symbolizing the unity of the fifty states, the enlightenment and hope that freedom represents and the importance of embracing peace to enrich ourselves with the hopes of a brighter life.
The new reverse features a head profile of a majestic bald eagle. It was designed by artist Jennie Norris and sculpted by medallic artist Renata Gordon both from the Artistic Infusion Program invited by the US Mint.
We are proud to offer you the 2022 1 oz Gold American Eagle in MS-70 condition and certified “Early Releases” by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation.

Past heroes have giving us the fortune to access Earth’s natural riches with their brave legacy, now transformed into timeless and historical investments.
