Comes in U.S. Mint Government Packaging with Certificate of Authenticity
2021 marks the 35th Anniversary of the American Eagle Coin Program. The United States Mint will unveil new reverse (tails) designs for bullion and collectible versions of American Eagle Gold and Silver Coins. The new designs (Type 2 Reverse) will begin appearing on these coins in midyear 2021 and include an anti-counterfeit reeded edge variation.
This listing is for the Type 2 which features an updated obverse and new reverse design.
American Eagle Uncirculated Coins for Collectors
The United States Mint also offers collectible, uncirculated versions of the popular gold and silver American Eagle Coins. All American Eagle Uncirculated Coins carry the same stunning designs found on their Proof counterparts.
The term "uncirculated" refers to the specialized minting process used to create these coins. Although they are similar in appearance to American Eagle Bullion Coins, these uncirculated coins are distinguished by the presence of a mint mark, indicating their production facility, and by the use of burnished coin blanks, which are hand-fed into specially-adapted coining presses one at a time.
Coin Design
Obverse: A refreshed version of Augustus Saint-Gaudens' full-length figure of Liberty with flowing hair, holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left.
Reverse: The design depicts a portrait of an eagle. Inscriptions include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, IN GOD WE TRUST, 50 DOLLARS and 1 OZ. FINE GOLD.
Coin Artists
Obverse: Augustus Saint-Gaudens (1848 - 1907)
Reverse: Mint Artistic Infusion Program (AIP) designer Jennie Norris created the design that was sculpted by Mint Medallic Artist Renata Gordon.
