1/10 oz $5 Gold American Eagle Coin (Date Varies)

The Gold American Eagle coin was first struck in 1986 and quickly became one of the most popular gold coins in history. The American Bald Eagle and Lady Liberty have been immortalized as symbols of freedom and independence in this gold coin. The inspiration behind the design is the 1907 Augustus Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, largely considered to be the most beautiful of U.S. coins. The Gold American Eagle is struck in four denominations ($5, $10, $25, and $50) and offers investors an attractive option for diversifying their portfolios.
