Mint Error Coins

When a Mint makes an error during the coin minting process, it produces a “Mint Error” coin. Since the inception of the first mints, they have been producing mint errors on various coins and paper currencies worldwide. Mint error coins generally have a high value among coin collectors. This is due to their uncommon occurrence compared to normal minted coins. Some mint-made errors prove more frequent than others and can occur for many reasons. These include but are not limited to debris falling onto planchets, faulty strikes, or even dust falling into the die. Because of this uncommon occurrence, buying mint error bullion coins often serves to diversify any buyer’s gold collection.

Burnished Gold Eagles

American Gold Eagles continue to be one of the most popular gold coins in the world. The Burnished Gold American Eagles differ from regular Gold Eagles due to their matte finish. This finish shows off more detail in the coin and makes the color truly shine in certain lighting. This look is achieved by polishing the planchets before the coin is struck. Their phenomenal eye-appeal makes burnished gold eagles highly prized by gold coin collectors. The fact that they are Mint Errors heightens the value as well.

American Gold Eagle Coin Design

First created in 1907, the gorgeous Gold American coin design continues to inspire coin enthusiasts everywhere. This design varies from the Silver American Eagle design - also a favorite choice for many buyers.

Created by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, the obverse side of the American gold coin, features Lady Liberty striding forward confidently. Her long hair flows in the wind behind her. In addition, Lady Liberty holds both a torch and an olive branch in her hands. These objects represent enlightenment, peace, and victory. Stars that represent the fifty states encircle Lady Liberty’s body, with the sun's rays shining brightly in the background. The background depicts the U.S. Capitol building, as well as the inscribed word "Liberty". This image is widely considered to be the most beautiful coin design in American numismatic history.

The reverse of the coin displays an American Bald Eagle flying above his family in their nest. He holds an olive branch in his talons. The reverse design, created by sculptor Miley Tucker-Frost, contains many inscriptions. These include “United States of America”, “E Pluribus Unum”, “In God We Trust”, and also the weight and face value of the coin.
