In 2008, the American Gold Eagle coins experienced heightened sales, prompting a temporary suspension by the US Mint. BGASC is pleased to offer the 2008 1/4 oz American Gold Eagle coin.

Coin Highlights:

  • Securely packaged in a protective plastic flip!
  • Commemorating the 23rd year of the American Gold Eagle coin series!
  • Limited final mintage of 70,000 coins!
  • Contains 1/4 Troy oz of pure gold content.
  • Carries a face value of $10 (USD), fully backed by the US government.

Each 2008 1/4 oz American Gold Eagle Coin is offered to you in a protective plastic flip. The 2008 release of 1/4 oz Gold Eagles experienced a significant jump in demand as a result of the Great Recession. The year-over-year increase from 2007 amounted to a more than two-fold increase in mintage figures.

Obverse

On the obverse of 2008 American Gold Eagles, Lady Liberty, envisioned by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, strides forward with a torch and olive branch, her hair flowing dynamically.

Reverse

Flip the 2008 American Gold Eagle Coin, and the reverse reveals a design by Miley Busiek and Sherl J. Winter, showcasing a male eagle with an olive branch flying towards a nest with a female eagle and eagletsa poignant symbol of family in America.

History

These iconic designs, born out of President Theodore Roosevelt’s quest for artistic excellence, continue to grace the American Eagle Gold coin. During the early 2000s, the price of gold experienced fluctuations but maintained an overall upward trajectory. The 2008 closing price ended at $880.75, reflecting a modest increase despite economic challenges.
