This magnificent coin represents a pinnacle of U.S. Mint craftsmanship and is presented in the highest possible condition, making it a distinguished addition to any significant collection of American gold coinage.

Historical Significance of the American Gold Eagle Series

The American Gold Eagle series, authorized by the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985, marked a triumphant return of pure gold coinage to the American public in 1986. Featuring Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic "Liberty" design on the obverse – first seen on the 1907-1933 Double Eagle – and Miley Busiek's modern depiction of a family of eagles on the reverse, these coins quickly became a flagship offering from the United States Mint. The 1991 edition carries forward this legacy, standing as a testament to American minting tradition and artistry from the early 1990s.

Key Features for Collectors

This particular 1991 American Gold Eagle coin offers exceptional characteristics for the discerning collector:

  • Denomination: $25 (USD), serving as legal tender.
  • Metal Content: Contains 1/2 troy ounce of .9167 fine (22-karat) gold, consistent with the American Gold Eagle standard.
  • Year of Issue: 1991. The 1/2 oz denomination from this year had a mintage of 94,500, a relatively lower figure that contributes to its appeal.
  • Grade: Certified MS70 (Mint State 70) by NGC. This represents a perfect coin, free of any post-production imperfections visible at 5x magnification. It is the highest possible grade awarded.
  • Certification: Professionally graded and authenticated by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) under Certification ID 6971872008. The NGC encapsulation ensures its condition and authenticity.
  • Iconic Design: Showcases the beloved Saint-Gaudens' Liberty on the obverse and a dynamic eagle family on the reverse, designs celebrated for their artistic merit.
