2022 ½ oz American Gold Eagle Coin BU

The US Mint’s Eagle Coin Program produces some of today’s most widely recognizable gold bullion coins. The ½ oz American Gold Eagle is a popular gold bullion coin that offers a combination of flexibility and modest premiums. US Mint products carry the industry's highest reputation, and Gold Eagles are always in heavy demand.

2022 will mark the first full year of production for the historic redesign launched in midyear 2021. The 2022 American Gold Eagle’s obverse features a refreshed depiction of the Augustus Saint-Gaudens design borrowed from the $20 Double Eagle Gold coin, minted from 1907 to 1933. This portrayal of Lady Liberty in stride has become one of US history’s most iconic coin designs. The new 2022 American Gold Eagle has replaced Miley Busiek’s illustration of the Family of Eagles on the reverse with a new design by Jennie Norris. This close-cropped and eye-catching profile shot of an American Bald Eagle displays incredible detail and is sure to impress for years to come.

Since its inception, each American Gold Eagle has been struck with 22-karat gold sourced directly from US mines, a strict legal requirement. The 22-karat gold content creates a more durable coin surface when compared with the .999 fine gold variety. This “Crown Gold” alloy exhibits a rich, golden tone and brilliant luster. The American Gold Eagle contains precisely one-half troy oz of .999 fine gold, but with an alloy blend of 91.67% gold, 5.33% copper, and 3.0% silver, the total coin weight reaches 0.5455 troy oz (16.96 grams).

The face value of each American Gold Eagle is backed by the US Federal Government and is offered in 1 oz ($50), ½ oz ($25), ¼ oz ($10), and 1/10 oz ($5) denominations. In addition, the weight, content, and purity of each American Gold Eagle are federally guaranteed. These new issue American Gold Eagles arrive in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition.

The 2022 ½ oz American Gold Eagle Coin BU can be ordered as single ½ oz coins, or mint tubes of 40 coins.
