First released by the United States Mint in 1986, the gold American Eagle was the first modern bullion coin to be authorized by the United States Congress and is backed by the US Mint for its weight, content, and purity. The obverse of the coin, originally designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens for the country's $20 gold piece minted from 1907 to 1933, carries the image of a full-length figure of Lady Liberty holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. The reverse side of the coin bears the image of a male bald eagle carrying an olive branch, flying towards his mate in a nest with their hatchlings. The one-tenth-ounce gold American Eagle by the United States Mint has a face value of $5.
