Crafted from a durable blend of 22-karat gold, these coins embody 91.67% gold, 3% silver, and 5.33% copper. The 1 oz Gold Eagle takes the lead in diameter, with subsequent weights displaying smaller diameters. Notably, in 2005, gold prices surged for the fifth consecutive year, surpassing $500 per ounce. Starting at $435.60 per ounce, it closed the year at $513.00 per ounce, marking a significant 17% increase.

The legacy of these designs harks back to President Theodore Roosevelt’s endeavor to restore beauty to US coinage in 1904. Saint-Gaudens’ Lady Liberty design, once featured on the Eagle and the Double Eagle gold coins, lives on in the American Gold Eagle coin.

The obverse of the 2005 Gold Eagle features Lady Liberty, created by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, radiating grace and freedom. With her flowing hair and symbolic elements, this design encapsulates the spirit of liberty and peace.

On the reverse, Miley Busiek’s design, sculpted by Sherl J. Winter, portrays a male eagle carrying an olive branch, flying toward a nest inhabited by a family of eagles. It’s a powerful symbol representing the essence of family in America.

Your 2005 1/2 oz American Gold Eagle Coin will arrive in a protective plastic flip, preserving the condition of your coin. This listing represents the 20th release in the overall series.
