1/10 oz Gold Eagles have proven to be immensely popular among investors and collectors. While the coin was not introduced in this weight in the proof version until 1988, the very first year of availability in the bullion series included the 1/10 oz gold coin. In that year, the 1/10 oz Gold American Eagle sold more than 912,000 coins behind only the 1 oz gold coin.
All of the 2020 1/10 oz Gold American Eagles in this listing come with a protective plastic slab for the individual coins and a Mint State 70 certification. Coins in this condition showcase full, original mint luster and lack all possible detracting flaws in the design elements and surface areas of the coin.
The obverse face of 2020 Gold American Eagles comes with the image of Liberty. This front-facing design was created in 1907 as one of four images of Liberty from Augustus Saint-Gaudens submitted to the US Mint for circulation gold coins and the US penny. The image was eventually chosen for the $20 Gold Double Eagle.
On the reverse side of 2020 1/10 oz Gold American Eagles is a depiction of American bald eagles. This design of a family of bald eagles is found only on the Gold Eagle Series and captures a male eagle flying over the nest as a female eagle guards a hatchling in the nest.
