1/2 Ounce 2009 Gold American Eagles - MS70 Grade

Authorized by Congress in 1985 and first minted in 1986, American Eagle Gold Bullion Coins are minted according to the durable, 22-karat standard established for circulating gold coinage 350 years ago. Each coin contains its full, stated weight of pure gold, which by law, must be taken from newly mined sources in America. The balance consists of silver and copper, added to increase the coin’s durability to help resist scratching and marring, which can adversely affect a bullion coin's resale value. Gold Eagles are rich in history, too. The obverse is based on world-renowned American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ design for the prized 1907 $20 gold coin. The reverse pictures a family of eagles, symbolizing family tradition and unity.

American Eagle Gold Bullion Coins are America’s only official investment-grade gold bullion coins. They’re the world’s only gold bullion coins whose weight, content and purity are guaranteed by the United States Government. So like the dollar, American Eagles are welcome in major investment markets worldwide. You can even include them in an Individual Retirement Account (IRA).

That’s because the forces that determine gold’s price usually differ from, and in many cases counter, the forces that determine the price of many financial assets. Investment advisors often suggest that this relationship may help to reduce portfolio volatility. Gold Eagle sare the easy, convenient and affordable way to add gold to your portfolio.
