Gold American Eagles from the United States Mint debuted in 1986 with 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz coins in the BU Gold Eagle range. That release year also included a 1 oz Proof Gold Eagle. In 1987, the US Mint issued the 1/2 oz Proof Gold Eagle for the first time. The rollout of the proof coins was completed in 1988 with the release of the 1/4 oz Proof Gold Eagle and 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagle.
Just like the BU Gold Eagle Series, the Proof Gold Eagle Series is dominated by the largest and smallest coins in the lot. The 1 oz and 1/10 oz coins often command the most interest from investors and collectors. From 1988 to 2007, the 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagle was the top seller each year. From 2008 to present, the 1 oz Proof Gold Eagle has emerged as the best-seller.
The obverse of 2021-W 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagles comes with Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ depiction of Liberty in front-facing relief. This design was originally used on the $20 Gold Double Eagle Coins from 1907 to 1933.
On the reverse of the 2021-W Proof Gold American Eagles is the image of a family of bald eagles. Designed exclusively for this series in 1986 by Miley Busiek, the depiction of a family of eagles around its nest appears for the final time in the series in 2021.
These 2021-W 1/10 oz Proof Gold American Eagles are available to you for purchase today in perfect condition. PF70 coins showcase full, original mint luster and come with no detracting flaws. The UCAM label indicates a proof coin with strong, frosted designs that contrast with the deeply-mirrored, clear background field. An Early Release coin is one that was received by the NGC within 30 days of its initial release by the US Mint.
