| Aanvullende informatie |
The American Gold Eagle series launched in 1986 under the Gold Bullion Coin Act of that year, which also mandated that the gold content be sourced exclusively from newly mined American deposits — a requirement that remains in force. The $5 face value is a legal fiction; it satisfies constitutional requirements for official coinage while bearing no relationship to the coin's actual gold value.
The 2021 issues mark a meaningful break in the series: the reverse design was revised for the first time since 1986, and the obverse was updated to remove the date and mintmark from the portrait field. That year also saw the introduction of new edge reeding and anti-counterfeiting micro-engraving on the Type 2 coins.
