American Eagle Gold Coins

American Eagle Gold Coins

American Eagle gold coins have been minted in their current specification since 1986 and have, in their relatively short history, quickly become a standout player in the global gold bullion market. Most originate from the United States Mint or the West Point Mint and are, as a rule, struck with American gold of 22ct quality (the same 91.67% purity as the British Sovereign).

The American Eagle family holds four sizes, one full and three fractional, and each name refers not to the overall weight of the coin but to the pure gold content in troy ounce. These are: the 1oz American Eagle, Half American Eagle, Quarter American Eagle, and Tenth American Eagle. Gold Traders will buy American Eagle coins in any denomination from 1/10oz to 1oz examples - and always pay our best price for these impressive Dollar-denominated gold coins.
