American Gold Eagle (1oz): US-Backed, Globally Respected
The American Gold Eagle is the official gold bullion coin of the United States. First introduced in 1986, it remains a leading choice for investors who value government-backed gold, widespread recognition, and long-term trust.
Why choose the 1 oz Gold Eagle?
- Backed by the US government for weight and purity
- Minted in 22-karat gold (91.67%) with added copper and silver for durability
- IRA-eligible and highly liquid
- Iconic design featuring Lady Liberty and a bald eagle family
Its alloyed content makes it more resistant to wear than pure 24-karat coins — a benefit for those handling or storing coins long-term. Whether you’re buying your first coin or building a sizeable portfolio, the Gold Eagle is a foundational piece.
