1 Oz American Gold Eagle

Few gold coins command the instant recognition and universal trust of the 1 Oz American Gold Eagle — America’s flagship gold bullion coin and one of the most traded gold coins on the planet. Whether you’re building a physical metals portfolio or adding a timeless piece to your collection, this is the coin serious precious metals buyers reach for first.

Why Choose the 1 Oz American Gold Eagle?

Struck by the U.S. Mint and first issued in 1986, this iconic gold coin contains a full troy ounce of pure gold in a durable 22-karat (91.67% fine) alloy — alloyed with silver and copper for superior wear resistance. Its $50 face value makes it legal tender, and its gold content, weight, and purity are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government. The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ beloved Lady Liberty design, while the reverse (Type II, post-2021) showcases a bold bald eagle portrait. Available in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) bullion finish, it is also IRA eligible — one of the few 22-karat coins to qualify. Prefer a 24-karat alternative? Browse our 1 Oz American Gold Buffalo or the 1 Oz Canadian Gold Maple Leaf .9999 Fine for pure gold options.
