Easily distinguished from the regular circulation coins because of their sharper rims, striking polished design, and smoother fields, Proof Gold Eagles make fantastic additions to any coin collection, even more so when in a set like these coins are. The set contains coins of 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz weight variants, featuring what is regarded by many as one of the most magnificent coin designs in America of all time. Each set contains 1.85 troy ounces of gold. The obverse of these mirror finish coins features a full-length depiction of Lady Liberty with her hair billowing in the wind, holding a torch on her right and an olive branch, signifying peace, in her left hand. These designs were inspired by Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ famed design of the 1907 Gold Double Eagle Coins. In the background, we can see the Capitol Building, the word "LIBERTY" engraved at the top, and the year of striking imprinted to the lower right side of the portrait. The reverse side showcases a popular, familiar design by Miley Busiek – a gorgeous image of a male eagle carrying an olive branch, flying towards his nest while the female eagle waits for him with her hatchlings in her nest. This portrait, as a whole, depicts the American family and their unity. Inscribed are the words "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" at the top, and the bottom features the purity and weight of the gold in the coin. You can also see the familiar mottos "E PLURIBUS UNUM” (out of many, one) and "IN GOD WE TRUST" on either side of the portrait. These set of 4 American Gold Eagle Proof Coins are ready to add to coin collections and come complete with a display box and Certificate of Authenticity. Although these sets can belong to any year, every American Gold Proof Eagle in a set will belong to the same year. They’ll make wonderful additions to any coin collection and will also add pure gold to your precious metals portfolios at an attractive price!
