The obverse of the 2026 American Gold Eagle features the classic image of Lady Liberty. Designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens in 1907, this artwork first appeared on the $20 Double Eagle and marked an important step forward in American coin design. Liberty is shown walking forward with confidence, holding a torch and an olive branch.

On the reverse of the 2026 1 oz Gold Eagle is a modern depiction of the American bald eagle. This design, created by Jennie Norris and introduced in 2020, presents a close-up view of the eagle’s head in left-profile relief. The detailed features give the design a clean and realistic appearance.
