Obverse

On the obverse of the 1996 American Gold Eagle, the familiar image created by sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens takes center stage. Originally used on gold eagle coins before 1933, this image was chosen to pay homage to Saint-Gaudens’ work when the American Eagle Program started. Liberty boldly strides forth against rays of sunlight, holding the torch and olive branch, with a small image of the national capitol building in the background.

Reverse

Designed by Miley Busiek Frost, the reverse of the 1996 1/10 oz Gold Eagle features a family of bald eagles in and around their nest. The male eagle, carrying an olive branch, symbolizes peace.

History
