American Gold Eagle coins are an incredible amalgamation of 91.67% gold, 3% silver, and 5.33% copper, boasting a 22 karat gold composition. Each coin holds its weight in pure gold, a testament to its value. In 2008, as the demand for gold surged, Gold Eagle coins faced sales suspensions, rationing, and delays in certain weight options.
