The 2005 Gold Eagle’s obverse showcases Lady Liberty, a creation by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, exuding grace and freedom. With her flowing hair and symbolic elements, this design encapsulates the essence of liberty and peace. Inscriptions on the obverse are LIBERTY and 2005.
Reverse
On the reverse, Miley Busiek’s design, sculpted by Sherl J. Winter, portrays a male eagle carrying an olive branch, soaring towards a nest housing a family of eagles. It’s a powerful symbol representing the core of family in America. Inscriptions on the reverse are UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, IN GOD WE TRUST, 1/2 OZ. FINE GOLD, and 25 DOLLARS.
History
The legacy of these designs traces back to President Theodore Roosevelt’s quest to restore beauty to US coinage in 1904. Saint-Gaudens’ Lady Liberty design, once featured on the Eagle and the Double Eagle gold coins lives on in the American Gold Eagle coin. Crafted from a durable blend of 22-karat gold, these coins embody 91.67% gold, 3% silver, and 5.33% copper.
