What is the American Gold Eagle?
American Gold Eagles – Sell Gold Eagles to Midwest Coin
First of all, the official gold bullion coin of the United States is the American Gold Eagle. Also, American Gold Eagles are called “AGE” or simply “Gold Eagles.” It was first released by the United States Mint on November 24, 1986, struck only in the one-troy ounce size. Furthermore, the United States Mint certified its content, weight, and purity as one troy ounce of 99.9% pure gold. Because the term “eagle” also is the official United States designation for pre-1933 ten dollars gold coins, the weight of the bullion coin is typically used when describing American gold eagles (e.g., “1/2-ounce American gold eagle”) to avoid confusion. This is particularly true with the 1/4-oz American gold eagle, which has a marked face value of ten dollars. Additionally, funding for Individual Retirement Account investments may be used for American Gold Eagle bullion coin. Therefore, AGE are very popular for retirement investing.
Gold eagles minted 1986–1991 are dated with Roman numerals. In 1992, the U.S. Mint switched to Arabic numbers for dating gold eagles.
The 1/10, 1/4, and 1/2 troy oz coins are identical in design to the 1 troy oz coin except for the markings on the reverse side that indicate the weight and face value of the coin (for example, 1 OZ. fine gold~50 dollars).
These bullion coins carry face values of $5, $10, $25, and $50. These are their legal values reflecting their issue and monetized value as coins. They are legal tender[1] for all debts public and private at their face values. These face values do not reflect their intrinsic value which is much greater and is mainly dictated by their troy weight and the current precious metal price.
The market value of the coins is generally about equal to the market value of their gold content plus a small premium not their face value. Like all commodities, this value fluctuates with market forces. The face values are proportional to the weights except for the 1/4 oz coin. Their actual selling prices vary based on the current spot price of gold. The United States Mint also produces proof and uncirculated versions for coin collectors. These coins are produced at the West Point Mint in West Point, New York. The proof and uncirculated versions carry the mint’s mark (“W”) beneath the date.
