Each year, hundreds of thousands of coins are submitted to the NGC and PCGS for certification. While these grading houses handle a wide array of coins, including other major bullion specimens such as the Silver Maple Leaf, Gold Maple Leaf, Silver Panda, and Gold Panda, the American Eagles from the United States Mint represent the largest chunk of coins graded.
Individual coins are submitted to these grading houses and carefully handled throughout the process. Professionals assess the condition of the luster, design strike, and surface areas to determine a grade on the Sheldon numeric scale from 1 to 70, with 70 representing a perfect coin. After grading, each coin is sealed in a protective plastic slab with labels denoting its grade and condition.
On the obverse of 2020 1 oz Gold American Eagles, the vision of Liberty created by Augustus Saint-Gaudens dominates. Her powerful figure walks forward with a torch held high in her right hand and a large olive branch clutched in her left.
The reverse face of 2020 Gold Eagles includes an exclusive design from Miley Busiek. The image includes a female eagle and young hatchling in the nest with a large male eagle flying over head.
These 2020 1 oz Gold American Eagles are graded Mint State 69 by the PCGS. Coins in this condition showcase full, original mint luster with no more than two minor detracting flaws present. Those flaws are limited in nature to minuscule contact marks and hairlines. The included First Strike label means each coin was received for grading by the PCGS or an approved third-party depository within 30 days of release by the US Mint.
