Introduction of Coins
First struck in 1986, Gold Eagles are one of the world's most popular ways to buy gold. The coins are available in 1/10oz, 1/4oz, 1/2oz, and 1oz sizes, with face values of $5, $10, $25, and $50, respectively. Due to record demand for bullion gold, the mint did not strike any proof 2009 gold eagles. When the series returned in 2010, sales rose substantially to 44,527 coins, just over the sales in 2007.Read More
