{{/presale}}Proof American Gold Eagle coins are the proof collectible version of the American Gold Eagle coins, the official bullion coin of the US. They are one of the most popular iterations of the highly respected coin series with investors and collectors adding them to their portfolios because of their value and pedigree. Today, BGASC is excited to present to you the 1/2 oz Proof American Gold Eagle coin from a random year of issue!
Coin Highlights:
All of the 1/2 oz Proof American Gold Eagle coins will be provided to you inside protective capsules for individual purchases. Coins dated 1986 to 2021 Type 1 releases have Miley Busiek’s reverse design, while coins issued from 2021 Type 2 onward have Jennie Norris’ bald eagle portrait.
Obverse
The obverse face of the Proof American Gold Eagle features the familiar face of Lady Liberty. She is commonly featured on this side of the coin and is a creation of Augustus Saint-Gaudens who designed her in 1907. He depicts her as a graceful woman who walks towards the viewer holding an olive branch and a torch. This design first made its debut on the $20 Gold Double Eagle.
Reverse
Miley Busieks design is featured on the reverse face of the 1/2 oz Proof Gold Eagle. It depicts a family of eagles with the male head flying over them in the wind. The female watches over their hatchlings while looking up to catch a glimpse of her male counterpart. Alternatively, Jennie Norris’ depiction of a bald eagle head in right-profile relief is on the reverse of coins issued from the 2021 Type 2 debut onward.
History
Proof American Gold Eagle Coins were released in 1986 with just a 1 oz option being available. The following year, a 1/2 oz version was released with 1/4 oz and 1/10 oz weights being made available in 1988. These coins have been released annually, except for 2009 due to economic uncertainty.
