| Additional information |
The American Gold Eagle revived an alloy formula — 22-karat gold with silver and copper — that had not appeared in U.S. coinage since the Saint-Gaudens double eagle was pulled from circulation in 1933. Congress authorized the series through the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985, with gold sourced exclusively from newly mined American deposits, a requirement that remains in force. The half-ounce quarter-eagle denomination has always been the least purchased of the four sizes in the series, consistently trailing both the one-ounce and tenth-ounce coins in annual sales figures.
