You get more than simply the precious metal when you purchase US gold coins. Along with their inherent gold value, these coins also tell the tale of how they were made. Some have additional value due to their rarity, age, or historical significance, while others are appreciated only for the gold they contain.
Determining which coin kind best suits your objectives—whether they involve diversifying your financial holdings, developing a collection, or saving money—begins with understanding this distinction.
When you purchase a gold coin, two main factors decide what it is worth: its metallic value and its collectible worth.
In this way, Pre-1933 coins offer the best of both worlds—solid weight in gold along with the added advantage of limited supply and importance in history.
| Coin Series | Years of Mintage | Gold Purity | Gold Content (AGW) | Gross Weight (grams) |

| $20 Liberty Head Double Eagle | 1850–1907 | 90% (21.6-karat) | 0.9675 troy oz | 33.436 g |
| $20 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle | 1907–1933 | 90% (21.6-karat) | 0.9675 troy oz | 33.431 g |
| 1 oz American Gold Eagle | 1986–Present | 91.67% (22-karat) | 1.000 troy oz | 33.930 g |
| 1 oz American Gold Buffalo | 2006–Present | 99.99% (24-karat) | 1.000 troy oz | 31.108 g |
Before 1933, gold coins were widely utilized in regular transactions throughout the country. These works had financial value, as well as they expressed the spirit of the time in their designs. Today, their scarcity, caused by the government’s recall and melting of gold pieces, makes them valuable prizes for both collectors and speculators.
Adding one to your collection means possessing something that was once in the hands of many US citizens when gold actually supported the nation's economy.
The Liberty Head, sometimes known as the “Coronet” series, represents one of the most iconic as well as beloved designs on American gold coins. It was created by engravers Christian Gobrecht and James B. Longacre and used across several denominations for nearly 70 years. The obverse shows Lady Liberty in a classical profile, while the reverse displays a detailed heraldic eagle.
The $20 Liberty Head Double Eagle, authorized in 1849, was a direct response to the California Gold Rush, when large amounts of newly mined gold flowed into the economy. Each piece contains gold of around 1 oz, providing it long-term worth for the metal and its historical significance in one of America’s most crucial chapters.
Several historians and collectors agree that the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is the finest coin ever struck by the US Mint. It was the result of President Theodore Roosevelt’s push to bring more artistry to American coinage. Sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens delivered a design that was attractive and timeless.
On the obverse, Lady Liberty strides forward with a torch in one hand and an olive branch on back side, showing enlightenment and peace. The reverse captures a powerful eagle in flight across the rising sun. Early versions struck in 1907 and 1908 did not include the motto “IN GOD WE TRUST,” but public demand led Congress to add it later that year. Today, these coins remain among the most admired and highly desirable globally.
After decades without circulating gold coins, the US returned to minting them in the 1980s, not for daily use but for investors and savers. The Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985 authorized the new coins making that combined strong designs with guaranteed gold content, beginning the modern era of American bullion coins.
The American Gold Eagle, introduced in 1986, rapidly became the country's official gold bullion currency. It comes in a variety of quantities, including 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz, giving consumers options for all budgets. Each coin is comprised of a 22-karat alloy, making it more resistant to scratches and handling while retaining the full weight of pure gold inside.
The obverse depicts Augustus Saint-Gaudens' classic Lady Liberty design. The reverse initially depicted a family of eagles (Type 1, 1986-2021), but was altered in 2021 to a close-up picture of a bald eagle (Type 2), adding new detail to this enduring series.
The Gold Buffalo was introduced in 2006 as the first-ever US coin struck in 24-karat gold. Containing one full troy ounce of .9999 fine gold, it was made for those who prefer maximum purity.
Its design pays tribute to the classic 1913 “Buffalo” nickel, showing a Native American picture on one side and a powerful American bison on the other. The pure gold and nostalgic design makes it one of the most admired modern bullion coins.
The artists who designed US gold coins play an important role in their story. Each engraver placed their mark on American money, influencing how the country presented itself through its coins.
At BOLD Precious Metals, we believe buying gold coins should be simple, safe, and rewarding. Here’s what makes us stand out:
No. To qualify for IRA inclusion, gold coins must meet strict purity standards. Modern bullion coins like the American Gold Buffalo (.9999 fine) and the American Gold Eagle (with a special exemption) are eligible. Older Pre-1933 coins, which are 90% gold, usually do not qualify.
Yes, every order is shipped securely and insured for its full sale value. From our vault to your doorstep, your purchase is protected against loss or damage.
We accept several safe and flexible options, including major credit/debit cards, paper checks, ACH/eCheck, and wire transfers, giving you multiple convenient ways to complete your order.
“BU” means Brilliant Uncirculated, a general term for coins that have never been used in circulation. A graded coin like an MS-65 has been professionally certified and scored on a 70-point scale. MS-65 coins are high-quality uncirculated pieces with strong eye appeal and only small imperfections.
