Buy 1/4 oz Gold American Eagle Coins

Buying gold in American 1/4 oz Gold Eagle Coins is a great way to own highly recognized quarter ounce fractional gold coins with a small premium over the world’s fluctuating spot gold price. This quarter ounce gold coin carries a legal tender face value of $10 USD yet 1/4 oz American Gold Eagle Coins are traded based on their overall 1/4 oz gold coin weight and overall gold bullion coin content. 

The 22k American Gold Eagle Coin is the most popular modern gold bullion coin in overall sales volumes and also comes in 1 oz, 1/2 oz, and 1/10 oz sizes. Authorized by Congress via the Bullion Coin Act of 1985, the American Gold Eagle Coin has been minted by the US Mint since 1986.

The Gold American Eagle’s weight, gold bullion content, and 22k gold purity are all guaranteed by the Government of the United States of America. 

The 1/4 oz American Gold Eagle Coin’s front or obverse features a throwback to the classic $20 Saint Gaudens’ gold coin design. This modern gold bullion coin depicts Lady Liberty who holds a torch and an olive branch with the U.S. Capitol Hill in the bottom left background. The quarter oz gold coin’s year of strike and the word ‘LIBERTY’ is also engraved on the front of this popular gold coin. 

The 1/4 ounce Gold Eagle Coin’s back or reverse design is by Miley Busiek. Struck on the back of all quarter ounce Gold Eagle Coins is a large male eagle clutching an olive branch flying over a nest containing a female and baby eagle.
