The American Eagle Standard

American Heritage. Global Liquidity.

The Gold American Eagle was first struck by the United States Mint in 1986 under the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985, as the official US gold bullion coin. It was designed to give Americans a government-backed gold coin that met international bullion standards.

The front shows Augustus Saint-Gaudens' famous Lady Liberty, first used on the 1907 $20 gold piece and one of the most celebrated designs in American coinage. The back showed a family of eagles until 2021, when it was replaced by a new eagle head design. The Eagle is one of the most heavily traded bullion coins in the world.

Unlike the 24-karat Canadian Maple Leaf, the American Eagle is struck in 22-karat gold (91.67% pure) alloyed with silver and copper, which makes it tougher and more scratch-resistant. We value it correctly: you're paid for the full troy ounce of gold it contains, not its total weight.

How Your Price Is Calculated

Precise Valuation. Zero Estimates.

Your Eagles are handled by specialists who know how to value 22-karat US Mint bullion. Not generalists, not a pawnbroker: a team that knows a 1 oz American Eagle contains 31.10 grams of pure gold, not 33.93g, and prices it accordingly.

Your offer is built on three inputs. XRF testing confirms the 22K composition, precision scales measure the weight to the milligram, and we apply the LBMA gold price on the day we receive your coins, the benchmark used by banks worldwide. The result is a fair offer with a full breakdown you can check.

What You Need
To Know

Clear answers to common questions about selling Gold American Eagle coins with Unique Jewelry.

Why does a 1 oz Eagle weigh more than an ounce?
It's 22K gold alloyed with silver and copper, so it weighs 33.93g in total but contains exactly one troy ounce (31.10g) of pure gold. We pay for the full ounce.
Do you buy proof American Eagles?
Yes. Proof Eagles, especially in their original US Mint box with the certificate, can carry a collector premium above their gold value.
Are older Eagles worth more?
For most bullion Eagles, you're paid for the gold whatever the year. A few low-mintage dates and proofs can be worth more, and we'll tell you if yours are.
Do you buy other US gold coins?
Yes, including American Buffalos and pre-1933 US gold coins such as $20 Double Eagles, which can carry a collector premium.
How quickly will I be paid?
In store, you can leave with cash the same day. By mail, you're paid within 24 hours of accepting our offer.
What if I don't accept the offer?
There's no obligation. We return every coin free and fully insured.
