Historical Significance of the American Gold Eagle Series

The American Gold Eagle series, first introduced in 1986, quickly became a cornerstone of United States coinage. Authorized by Congress, these coins embody American ideals through their iconic designs. The obverse proudly displays Augustus Saint-Gaudens' revered "Lady Liberty" striding forward with a torch and olive branch, a design originally featured on the nation's pre-1933 double eagle coins. The reverse, designed by Miley Busiek, depicts a family of eagles, symbolizing strength and unity. The 1996 edition is particularly notable within the series for its lower mintage, adding to its desirability among those seeking significant dates.
