Struck in 1996, this quarter-ounce American Gold Eagle showcases a classic design that remains a favorite among coin enthusiasts. The obverse features the iconic figure of Liberty, stepping forward with a torch in one hand and an olive branch in the other, set against a background of sun rays. The inscription LIBERTY and the year 1996 are clearly visible on this side of the coin. On the reverse, a family of eagles is depicted, with a male eagle in flight carrying an olive branch to a nest containing a female eagle and her hatchlings. This fraction-ounce gold piece contains exactly 0.2500 troy ounces of gold, combining United States minting tradition with a smaller, highly detailed format.
