The Design

The Lady Liberty design imprinted in the Gold Eagle obverse reproduces Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ $20 Double Eagle Coin from 1933.

She walks forward, carrying a torch and an olive branch. While the torch symbolizes enlightenment, the oak means peace and the march ahead, evolution. 

The Capitol Building has a discreet figure on the lower left, and the mintage year is on the lower right. Six-pointed stars encircle the image with the word “LIBERTY” on the border.

The 35th anniversary of the series gave the coin a new reverse design. The Eagle has a frontal close-up with a deep glance and hooked beak. 

The inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and “IN GOD WE TRUST” arch over the Eagle. And, on the bottom rim, “50 DOLLARS,” “1 OZ. FINE GOLD” refers to the face value, weight, and metal content.

The Sheldon Grading Scale 

Dr. Willian Herbert Sheldon developed this scale in 1949, establishing a standard code to evaluate coins based on their condition and authenticity. The scale varies from 70 to 1. The highest grade a coin gets, the nearer to perfection it is.

The NGC - Numismatic Guaranty Company is a third-party service globally recognized that uses the Sheldon Grading Scale to evaluate and certify coins.

An MS-70 Coin

MS stands for Mint State. It means the analyzed coin is in the same perfect condition as initially produced. It has never circulated, presenting no visible signs of wear, tear, or scratching. 

Therefore, an MS-70 coin is in perfect mint condition.
