An American Eagle Dollar is a great investment not just for the precious metal content, but also for the collectible nature of these very popular gold, silver, or platinum bullion coins. The obverse (face) of an American Eagle coin has a hopeful walking liberty on the gold and silver eagles; where the platinum eagle has a close up of the Liberty’s face.
The American Eagle gold and platinum bullion coins come in tenth ounce to 1 ounce coins. The Silver Eagle only comes in a 1 ounce version. American Eagles in uncirculated form command a slight premium over their bullion price within their minted year. Collecting premiums start climbing from there. The proof versions struck exclusively at the West Point Mint and in significantly lower quantities are in high demand
