Description: 2024 Gold American Eagle Proof 70 Coin

A Modern Masterpiece in Gold

The 2024 Gold American Eagle Proof represents the pinnacle of American numismatic art and craftsmanship. This stunning 1 oz, 22-karat gold coin combines a historic obverse design with a powerful new reverse, all preserved in a flawless Proof 70 condition and authenticated by the hand-signed label of former U.S. Mint Director Ed Moy.

Key Features:

• Perfect Preservation: Independently certified by NGC in perfect Proof 70 condition, meaning it has zero imperfections even under 5x magnification.

• Director’s Provenance: Part of the esteemed Ed Moy Signature Series, featuring his hand-signed label.

• Classic & Contemporary Design: Features the iconic Saint-Gaudens Lady Liberty on the obverse and the bold, new eagle portrait by Jennie Norris on the reverse.

• Superior Craftsmanship: Struck with deeply mirrored fields and frosted devices, giving it a stunning contrast and a polished, mirror-like finish.

• Ideal Gold Content: Minted from 22-karat gold for a rich color and enhanced durability, making it more resistant to scratches and handling marks.

The Historic Obverse: A Restored Legacy
The obverse continues to feature Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ majestic full-length portrait of Lady Liberty from the 1907 $20 gold piece. Recently, the U.S. Mint returned to original historical assets to better reflect Saint-Gaudens’ vision. This meticulous restoration enhanced details in the Capitol Building, the torch, sun rays, and Liberty’s eyes, bringing unparalleled depth and historical accuracy to this classic design.

The New Reverse: Intensity and Majesty
In 2021, the reverse design changed for the first time in 35 years. Artist Jennie Norris, inspired by her work with raptors, created a striking close-up portrait of an American eagle. This new design captures the noble bird’s powerful, penetrating gaze and the incredible detail of its feathers, creating a dynamic and lifelike image that commands attention. The design is framed by the standard inscriptions, including “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM.”
