1/10 OZ AMERICAN GOLD EAGLE

1/10 oz American Gold Eagle

NYCBullion proudly offers the 1/10 oz American Gold Eagle, a timeless piece of American coinage produced by the historic United States Mint. Composed of .9167 fine gold and weighing 1/10 troy ounce, this coin combines investment-grade gold content with symbolic, patriotic design.

Backed by the U.S. government with a legal tender face value of $5, the 1/10 oz Gold Eagle is the smallest fractional denomination in the American Gold Eagle series, making it an affordable and accessible way to begin or expand your precious metals portfolio.

A Harmony of Culture and Gold

First introduced in 1986 under the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985, the American Gold Eagle is the official gold bullion coin of the United States. It reflects both national pride and the Mint’s extraordinary legacy, dating back to 1792.

The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ iconic design of Lady Liberty, one of the most celebrated depictions in American coinage. Depending on the year of issue, your coin may include one of two reverse designs: the classic Type 1 design showcasing a family of eagles in flight and at rest, or the modernized Type 2 design featuring a striking close-up of a bald eagle’s head.

Each design honors American strength, tradition, and excellence, making this fractional coin a powerful symbol in a compact form.
