The 2022 1oz Gold American Eagle Bullion Coin is struck by the United States Mint in 22-carat gold and contains one troy ounce of fine gold. It is part of the modern Type 2 period of the American Gold Eagle bullion series, one of the most widely recognised modern gold coin programmes.
The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' Liberty design, adapted from the historic Double Eagle coinage, while the reverse carries Jennie Norris' eagle portrait reverse. This combination of American numismatic heritage and investment-grade bullion specification gives the coin strong international recognition.
The 2022 issue is the first full-year Gold American Eagle bullion date of the Type 2 reverse era, making it useful for collectors separating the classic and modern design periods.
