Historical Significance of the American Gold Eagle Series

The American Gold Eagle program, authorized by Congress in 1985 and first minted in 1986, quickly became a cornerstone of U.S. bullion coinage. These coins embody American ideals through their classic designs. The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic "Liberty" design, originally created for the 1907 $20 double eagle, depicting Lady Liberty striding forward with a torch and olive branch. The reverse, designed by Miley Busiek, showcases a family of eagles, symbolizing strength and unity. The 1990 issue hails from a foundational period of this esteemed series, reflecting a moment in modern U.S. coinage history.
