Introduction of Coins
First struck in 1986, the Gold Eagle coin program is one of the world's most popular gold coin programs. The coins are available in 1/10oz, 1/4oz, 1/2oz, and 1oz sizes, with face values of $5, $10, $25, and $50, repectively. Due to the fact that it was the first year of issue, the 1986 $10 gold has the highest mintage of any $10 gold eagle.Read More
