| Reverse description | A bald eagle, the national bird of the United States, is depicted in high relief descending with wings spread and talons extended, as if preparing to land. The eagle faces right in a naturalistic, dynamic pose that conveys strength and motion. The denomination $100 and the national motto E PLURIBUS UNUM are inscribed prominently, along with the specifications 1 oz. .9999 FINE GOLD and the issuing authority UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Designer initials DW and MG appear in the lower field. |

| Additional information |
The American Liberty High Relief series was revived in 2015 after a nearly century-long gap following the original Saint-Gaudens high-relief double eagle of 1907 — itself a coin whose extreme relief caused such stacking and handling problems that the design was flattened after fewer than 12,000 pieces were struck. The 2019 issue continues an annual rotation of designs within the series, each struck on specially prepared planchets requiring multiple strikes to achieve full relief.
Mintage is capped at 50,000 pieces across the series, though actual production has consistently fallen well short of that ceiling.
