American Eagle 2023 One Ounce Gold Proof Coin
Experience the spirit of America in 22-karat gold with the American Eagle Gold Proof Coin, a refresh of Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ iconic design featuring cutting edge minting technology. Dissatisfied with American coinage, Theodore Roosevelt appointed Saint-Gaudens with beautifying coin designs — he then created this now legendary Lady Liberty striding towards the viewer, torch and olive branch in hand. Originally minted from 1907-1933, this design circulated through American hands as they navigated World War I and the Great Depression.
Since 2021, this American Eagle Gold Proof Coin features a new reverse image of a striking American Eagle. These coins have been updated with enhanced security features, including a reeded edge variation.
This American Eagle Gold Proof Coin was struck by the United States Mint in West Point, New York, and is accompanied by an official certificate of authenticity. This coin is encapsulated and packaged in a black presentation case, ready for display.
