2026 1 oz American Gold Eagle Coin NGC MS70 FDOI
The year 2026 marks a major milestone for the American Gold Eagle series, as it reaches 40 years of production. The US Mint launched the Gold Eagle bullion coins in 1986, offering four sizes to make the series accessible for a wide range of buyers. Each coin is made from 22-karat gold, using a trusted mix of 91.67% gold with small amounts of copper (5.33%) and silver (3%). This alloy gives the coins extra strength without reducing their gold content. Today, 2026 1 oz American Gold Eagle Coins in certified condition are available at BGASC. **Highlights:** - **Arrives in a protective slab!** - **40th-anniversary date in the Gold Eagle Series!** - **Limited availability of certified perfect coins!** - Contains 1 troy oz of actual gold content. - Bears a face value of $50 (USD) backed by the federal government. - Issued a Grade of Mint State 70 by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation. - First Day of Issue. - Lady Liberty on the obverse. - American bald eagle on the reverse.

Liberty strides forward with a torch raised in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. Stars form a border around the design, and sunrays fan out behind her, keeping this side instantly recognizable. **Reverse** On the reverse of the 2026 1 oz Gold Eagle Coins is the modern bald eagle portrait introduced in 2020. Designed by Jennie Norris, the image shows the eagles head in left-profile relief, emphasizing depth and fine feather detail. **History** A significant design update for the 1 oz Gold Eagle arrived in 2021, its first major change in 35 years and part of a broader update to the American Eagle lineup. The new reverse, created by Jennie Norris, focuses on a single eagle in flight shown up close. The result is a clean, detailed image with a more current feel. **Ordering** If you have any questions, please dont hesitate to ask.
