History of the American Eagle Coin Program

The U.S. Mint launched the American Eagle Coin Program 35 years ago with the introduction of gold and silver bullion coins designed for collectors and investors alike. They featured patriotic designs that included the Statue of Liberty as well as the national bird — an eagle. Over the years, the American Eagle Coin Program was expanded to include platinum and palladium coins, although gold and silver still remain the most popular.

American Eagle 2021 Gold Coins

Many investors choose to buy gold as a way to diversify their portfolios. With the current volatility of the market, it’s unwise to put all of your investments into one area and take unnecessary risks. Investing in gold is a smart way to protect yourself from inflation, deflation, and a major drop in the stock market. The new American Eagle 2021 gold coins are available in four different sizes — one-tenth ounce, one-quarter ounce, one-half ounce, and one ounce. They are minted with a high level of detail and include a reeded edge variation as an anti-counterfeit measure.

American Eagle 2021 Silver Coins

Similar to the American Eagle gold coins, the 2021 silver coins have a new design that features a bald eagle on the reverse side. The eagle is minted in high detail showing its wings spread in mid-flight and its claws holding an oak branch. These silver bullion coins are guaranteed in weight and purity by the US Government and each coin contains a minimum of one troy ounce (31.103 grams) of 99.9% pure silver. The silver American Eagle 2021 coin also had the reeded edge for security purposes — similar to the gold version of this coin.
