Authorized under the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985, it was first released by the United States Mint in 1986. The term “eagle” also is the official United States designation for pre-1933 ten dollars gold coins. However, the weight of the bullion coin is typically used when describing American Gold Eagles (e.g., “1/2-ounce American Gold Eagle”) to avoid confusion.
The obverse design features a rendition of Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ full length figure of Lady Liberty with flowing hair. Additionally, the design is holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left, with the Capitol building in the left background.
The design is taken from the $20 Saint-Gaudens gold coin which was commissioned by Theodore Roosevelt to create coins like the ancient Greek and Roman coins. In conclusion, the reverse design, by sculptor Miley Busiek, features a male eagle carrying an olive branch flying above a nest containing a female eagle and her hatchlings.
