Often recognized as one of the rarer coins in its series, the 1/4 oz American Gold Eagle gains popularity during upward swings in gold prices, although it doesn’t quite reach the demand levels of its 1/10 oz and 1 oz counterparts. The 2004 edition of these coins, with a limited mintage of just 72,014, is now available for purchase on BullionMax.

Coin Highlights:

• Packaged in protective individual flips.
• Marks the 19th release of American Gold Eagle Coins.
• Limited mintage of only 72,014 coins.
• Contains 1/4 Troy oz of actual gold content.
• Face value of $10 (USD) fully backed by the US government.
• Lady Liberty featured on the obverse.
• Reverse showcases the American bald eagle family.

Issued annually by the United States Mint, Gold Eagle BU coins are subject to fluctuating mintages based on market demand. The 2004 release saw a mintage of 72,014, with the 1/4 oz Gold Eagle experiencing a decline from the previous edition.

Lady Liberty graces the obverse of the 2004 American Gold Eagle, depicted in front-facing relief with a torch in her right hand, an olive branch in her left, and the U.S. Capitol Building at her feet.

The reverse of the 2004 1/4 oz Gold Eagle, designed by Miley Busiek in 1986, features a family of American bald eagles with a male eagle soaring over the nest as a female eagle guards hatchlings within.
