The Gold Eagle is the official gold bullion coin of the United States and is highly sought after by collectors and investors alike. 

Crafted by the US Mint using 22k gold, the Half-ounce Gold Eagle stands out as the heaviest fractional denomination, with a face value of $25. Its striking designs, created by Augustus Saint-Gaudens and Jennie Norris, feature Lady Liberty and the bald eagle.

These particular 1/2 oz Gold Eagles have been graded as MS-70 by NGC and come sealed with the exclusive Edmund C. Moy Label. 

Moy, who served as the 38th Director of the US Mint from 2006 to 2011, is recognized as the Father of the Modern Coin Era due to his transformative contributions to US Mint coinage. During his tenure, Moy introduced innovative designs and oversaw the creation of iconic series like the 24k Gold Buffalo and the esteemed 2009 Ultra High Relief coin. His leadership also led to unprecedented production of gold and silver coins, significantly boosting global interest in modern U.S. coins.
