Now Available—the Most Acclaimed and Sought-After Gold Proofs in the World!
Perfect 2024 Gold, with Sought-After Designations and Hand-Signed Labels, Plus a LAST from Elizabeth Jones!
Gold in America—it’s a fascinating story that has roots in the discovery of the precious metal at Sutter's Mill on January 24, 1848. Though John Sutter’s partner, James W. Marshall tried to keep it a secret after he found shining flecks of gold near the sawmill they were building—SURPRISE!—word got out and in a very short time hundreds of thousands of people migrated west fueled by the promise of wealth beyond their wildest dreams.
Decades later, it was President Ronald Reagan who elevated gold in the American consciousness when he signed the Gold Bullion Coin Act into law in 1985, effectively putting gold within reach of U.S. citizens by mandating the minting of Gold American Eagle coins beginning in 1986. Gold Eagles quickly soared in popularity, appealing to not only investors, but to coin collectors too, thanks to the coin’s iconic design.
Truly All-American Coins, Gold Eagles Are Minted from U.S. Gold
Since their introduction 38 years ago, American Gold Eagles have remained one of the most popular gold coins in the United States. Reason #1 for that popularity is that, by law, they are minted from gold mined in the U.S. The Gold Eagle is an American coin through and through. The legislation also stipulated Gold Eagles would be minted in four different weights (one-ounce, half-ounce, quarter-ounce and tenth-ounce, $50, $25, $10 and $5 denominations respectively) and would include two different versions, bullion and proof. The bullion program was immediately available with all four weights, while proofs weren’t available in all four weights until 1988.
Reason #2: The Gold Eagle Design Represents American Strength and Beauty
The second reason the coin is so popular is its beautiful, intricate, uniquely American design, which combines both the old and the new. The obverse of the coin features a modified version of American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ classic Lady Liberty design for the $20 Double Eagle gold piece which was originally commissioned by President Theodore Roosevelt and minted from 1907 to 1933. It is considered to be one of the most striking American coin designs of all-time.
As for the coin’s reverse—for the first 35 years, the reverse design was Miley Frost’s depiction of a family of bald eagles. Then, mid-2021, in honor of the coin’s 35th anniversary, the Gold Eagle received a new reverse design depicting a close-cropped profile of a bald eagle with a strong, curved beak, thick plumage, and an intense gaze, created by Artistic Infusion Artist Jennie Norris. Ms. Norris is an award-winning artist who drew inspiration for the design from her deep connections to nature and wildlife.
Why Do Collectors Prefer Proofs?
In two nutshells, collectors want proofs because they are struck to a much greater standard of beauty, quality, and craftsmanship than non-proof coins, and because they’re minting process is more time-consuming, they have a higher degree of scarcity than non-proof coins. Proofs are minted using special proof planchets (blanks) that have been treated, hand-polished, and cleaned to ensure high-quality strikes, then fed into presses fitted with polished dies and struck at least twice, unlike regular coins which are struck only once, to give them a glamorous shine, and make the intricate, razor-sharp details of the design pop against polished, mirror-like fields. While regular coins are struck on high-speed presses by the thousands, proofs are individually struck by highly-skilled artisans who are focused on creating numismatic masterpieces—and therefore proof mintages are typically only a fraction as large as bullion coins.
But—These Aren’t Just Proofs, these are Perfect Proofs
Even within the population of proofs, there are levels of quality. With proofs and coins, quality is measured by grades on a 70-point scale, with a grade of 70 representing absolute perfection, even under magnification. That’s what you have here, the best of the best, certified by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as having a flawless Proof-70 (PF70) grade. Not only that, NGC also certified these proofs as Ultra Cameo (UC), a designation given to coins that possess an intense frosted finish on both sides, with highly polished fields accenting the raised elements.
WAIT—There’s More!
Flawless and Ultra Cameo, but even better, these 2024 Gold Eagle Proofs also qualified for the sought-after designation of First Day of Issue (FDI)—which means the coins were purchased within one day of the first day the mint made them available. Coins with FDI designations are in demand because they are well-struck using fresher dies, and because that designation narrows the population even more.
Exclusive Hand-Signed Signature Labels from Numismatic Royalty
But that’s not all! Each of these Gold and Silver Eagles will arrive encapsulated in a tamper-resistant holder, featuring an exclusive label, with hand-signed signatures (one per coin) from men and women who have played a critical role in the designs and popularity of these beautiful coins. Your choice of hand-signed signature labels includes:
The LAST YEAR! Elizabeth Jones, the former 11th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint appointed by President Ronald Reagan, is one of the most well-known women in numismatics. Along with being the only female Chief Engraver to ever hold the position, she designed the first modern commemorative coin, the 1982 George Washington Half Dollar, and she was instrumental in the launch of these American Eagle coins. This is the FINAL year labels featuring the hand-signed signature of Elizabeth Jones will be available!
Jennie Norris, a specialist in fine art, graphic design, and illustration who designed the American Gold Eagle reverse, her first design to appear on a coin.
John Mercanti, the former 12th Chief Engraver for the U.S. Mint, the designer of the original Silver Eagle’s heraldic eagle reverse design, and the man who has produced more coin and medal designs than any employee in United States Mint history.
David J. Ryder, an AMS ambassador and the former 34th and 39th Director of the U.S. Mint who was very instrumental in the transition from the original design to the new design, and who was named one of Coin World’s “Most Influential People in Numismatics.”
These flawless Gold and Silver American Eagles, with perfect grades and sought-after designations and hand-signed labels, are only available from us.
