2025 NGC MS-70 FIRST30™ 1 oz American Gold Eagle Coin
The US Gold Eagle was the first gold coin introduced under the American Eagle Program and serves as the nation’s official gold bullion coin.
Minted from 22-karat gold, each coin contains a full troy ounce of gold, resulting in a slightly larger size than standard one-ounce gold coins. The composition includes 3% silver and 5.33% copper, enhancing its durability.
Gold Eagles feature renowned designs. The obverse showcases Augustus Saint-Gaudens' classic Liberty motif from the 1907 $20 Double Eagle. The reverse, updated in 2021 for the program’s 35th anniversary, presents Jenni Norris’ striking depiction of an eagle.
These coins, in particular, are part of SD Bullion’s exclusive MintCertified™ program.
SD Bullion’s MintCertified™ FIRST30™ program is an exclusive partnership with NGC. It guarantees these coins have been delivered in the original unopened, temper-evident sealed mint tubes during the first 30 days of the coin’s release. These MintCertified™ Sealed Tubes were only opened at an NGC depository, and each coin was individually appraised and graded, receiving the FIRST30™ label.
SD Bullion offers 2025 1 oz American Gold Eagle Coins, certified by NGC as MS-70 FIRST30™ samples.

The words “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and the mottos “E PLURIBUS UNUM” and “IN GOD WE TRUST” complete the image.
An NGC MS-70 Coin
NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Company) evaluates and grades coins independently of sovereign mints. It utilizes the Sheldon Scale, a grading system from 1 to 70, to meticulously assess coins' condition.
MS stands for Mint State, indicating a coin crafted in the format of a business circulation coin. Since it has never been in circulation, the coin has no flaws, which grants it a 70 grade.
