The 1/10 oz Proof American Gold Eagle made its debut in 1988 and remains the smallest size offered in the series. Although it is a fractional coin, it delivers the same design quality and craftsmanship found on larger Proof Gold Eagles. The detailed engraving of both Liberty and the eagle highlights the advanced minting techniques used by the United States Mint. This smaller denomination has long appealed to collectors who want to enjoy the Proof Gold Eagle series with a lower overall gold weight.

Each 2026-W 1/10 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Coin available here is housed in an individual capsule and placed inside a presentation display box. The coin and box are packaged together in a themed outer shipper and include a Certificate of Authenticity from the US Mint. These proof coins feature a special dual date of 1776-2026 along with a Liberty Bell 250 privy mark, recognizing the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States.

The obverse design of the 2026-W Proof American Gold Eagle showcases Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ celebrated image of Lady Liberty, first used in 1907 on the $20 Gold Double Eagle. Liberty is shown walking forward with confidence, holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. The U.S. Capitol appears in the background near her feet, while rays of sunlight spread outward behind her and a ring of stars frames the design along the rim.

On the reverse of the 2026-W 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagle is a close-up portrayal of the American bald eagle. Introduced in 2020, this design by Jennie Norris focuses on the eagle’s head in left-profile relief, emphasizing fine feather details and a strong, clean finish.
