A Look at the 2017 Gold Eagle

The American Eagle coin can be purchased in both gold and silver, but the designs are very different. For the 2017 Gold American Eagle Coin, the US Mint chose to use an adaptation of the Saint-Gaudens Walking Liberty design, which features Lady Liberty carrying a torch and olive branch with the shining sun behind her. The word Liberty appears at the top of the obverse, with the mint date found on the lower right side.

On the reverse, you’ll find the vaunted design by Miley Busiek, featuring a bald eagle carrying an olive branch back to his nest where is mate waits with their chicks. At the top of the reverse appears United States of America. On the right, you’ll find the In God We Trust motto, and on the left you’ll find E Pluribus Unum. At the bottom is printed 1 OZ. Fine Gold – 50 Dollars.

The coin does contain a full troy ounce of pure gold, and is minted at West Point, New York, although the mint mark does not appear on the coin.
