The American Gold Eagle, first issued in 1986, is the official gold bullion coin of the United States, designed to compete with global bullion coins such as the Canadian Maple Leaf and South African Krugerrand. While their value is primarily tied to gold spot prices, certain low-mintage issues have gained collector premiums over time.
