1987 1/4 oz American Gold Eagle MS-69 NGC (Everhart)
The 1987 American Gold Eagle, with a face value of 10 dollars, showcases some of the most celebrated imagery in United States coinage. Struck from a composition containing a quarter ounce of gold, this piece brings together two distinct artistic visions that celebrate national ideals. On the obverse, viewers can admire a classic representation of Lady Liberty. This design is adapted from the famous early twentieth-century work of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, depicting Liberty walking forward with strength and grace, illuminated by the radiating rays of a rising sun. The reverse side presents a contrasting, modern narrative of family and nature designed by Miley Busiek. It depicts a male bald eagle soaring through the air, clutching an olive branch as he returns to a nest. Waiting in the nest are a female eagle and their young, creating a powerful scene of protection and unity.
