History

The American Gold Eagle coin made its grand entrance from the United States Mint in 1986. Initially available in all four weights in bullion and solely in the 1 oz weight in proof, fractional-weight coins in proof emerged in 1987 and 1988, with the burnished version introduced across all weights in 2006 during the series’ 20th anniversary. All American Gold Eagle coins proudly emerge from the West Point Mint, a distinguished US Mint facility responsible not only for producing the American Gold Eagle but also its popular counterpart, the American Silver Eagle.
