1999 was a major year for the American Gold Eagle. For the third straight year, mintage had increased. That was the first time in the coin’s history that it had experienced three consecutive years of increasing demand. Even more significantly, it marked the highest mintage level in the coin’s now 30-year history.

There was another significant occurrence in 1999. While the 1999 1 oz American Gold Eagle bullion coin set a record amidst the DotCom boom’s bubble burst and the fears over Y2K, the 1/10 oz coin sold nearly double the amount of the 1 oz coin, establishing it as the go-to option for average investors.

On the obverse of the 1999 1 oz American Gold Eagle coin you’ll find Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ depiction of Lady Liberty. Saint-Gaudens created his original Liberty design in 1907 for use on an ultra-high-relief coin, but the US Mint lacked that capability in the early 20^th century. It would nonetheless go down as the nation’s greatest design of all time, anchoring the $20 Gold Double Eagle through 1933.

The reverse of the American Gold Eagle coin features a design created specifically for it and used exclusively on the Gold Eagle collection. Miley Busiek created a design that features an American bald eagle family in its nest, with a male flying overhead and a female guarding a group of hatchlings.
