Additional Description: This 1995 American Gold Eagle, preserved in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and sourced from a U.S. Mint tube, represents a key example of modern U.S. bullion coinage at a time when demand for physical gold was steadily growing. Struck in 22-karat gold (91.67% purity), the coin contains a full troy ounce of gold, alloyed with silver and copper for added durability—a nod to the traditional composition of historic U.S. gold coins. The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ iconic rendering of Liberty, originally designed for the $20 double eagle of 1907, while the reverse, used through 2001, displays Miley Busiek’s family of eagles motif, symbolizing strength and national unity. The 1995 issue falls within the first decade of the Gold Eagle program, which began in 1986 in response to the growing global market for investment-grade bullion.
