Proof American Gold Eagle One Tenth Ounce 2003

The process of keeping the American Gold Eagle, in both BU and Proof condition, at the top of the most desired gold coins list, is extensive but worth while. In order to keep the luster pristine and the strike sharp, the US Mint creates a new die annually from scratch. Throwing out the dies from the previous year, the US Mint makes sure every detail is flawless before producing the new coin. The US Mint only sells directly to authorized dealers, allowing those dealers the ability to distribute to the public. In 1986, the United States began striking gold and silver bullion coins to compete with world bullion coins such as the Canadian Maple Leaf, the South African Krugerrand, and others. The value of these coins was intended to be tied directly to their metal value, although in some cases (where mintages were low) a collector market has developed.

The 2003 Proof American Gold Eagle One Tenth Ounce comes complete in its original packaging with its Certificate of Authenticity included. The Proof American Gold Eagle's authenticity and legal tender is backed by the US government, ensuring the validity of your investment. Although collectors and investors know what to expect when it comes to the design, of the Proof American Gold Eagle, this coin only increases in popularity each year.
