History

The arrival of the new Type 2 Proof American Gold Eagle from the United States Mint signals a rare opportunity due to its limited mintage. With only 3,375 coins minted for the 1/4 oz gold version, it stands as the second-highest in mintage, just after the 1/10 oz gold coin with a limit of 10,000 coins.
