The American Gold Eagle was first introduced in 1986, following the passage of the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985, which authorized the U.S. Mint to produce gold coins backed by the federal government. The design pays homage to American ideals and artistry. The obverse features the iconic image of Lady Liberty striding forward with torch and olive branch, originally created by Augustus Saint-Gaudens for the $20 Double Eagle in 1907. The reverse, designed by Miley Busiek (now Miley Tucker-Frost), depicts a male bald eagle carrying an olive branch to a nest containing a female eagle and hatchlings symbolizing family, strength, and unity.
