This value is recognized not only for their stability even in unstable times, but also for their beauty.

Lady Liberty – Graceful, Proud, Strong

The obverse design is based on the Saint-Gaudens' Double Eagle, introduced into circulation in 1907. The Double Eagle was produced from 1907-1933, and to this day is considered the most beautiful design ever produced by the U.S. Saint-Gaudens' iconic design was adapted to feature on the new Gold American Eagles.

Lady Liberty stands gracefully, yet proud and strong under the banner of Liberty. With the first rays of the sun rising behind her, she looks out at the dawn of a bright future. Elegantly draped with a flowing, full-length gown, Liberty displays a strong, resolute confidence. The glory of her long hair is tossed beautifully in waves behind her, captured in the breeze.

In her right hand she raises a lighted torch high before her. The torch not only lights the path forward, but also bears witness to the liberty and freedom for which she stands. In the same manner, our Lady grasps the olive branch of peace in her left hand. She holds it out prominently before the Nations of the world, to make clear just how highly she prizes that peace.

The Eagle – Magnificent, Powerful, Protective

The reverse of the coin features a magnificent male bald eagle descending towards his nesting mate. She is covering her young hatchlings with her strong, beautiful wings. The regal strength of the male is displayed in his large, powerful wings. In his talons he grasps an olive branch.

Miley Busiek, a prominent sculptress, produced the reverse design. She was commissioned to design the Inaugural medallion for President Ronald Reagan. Busiek made a daring decision to depart from the traditional depiction of a single, heraldic eagle. Her design featured a family of eagles, in a nesting scene. This displayed the eagle's magnificence and strength, as well as the tenderness and protective care of a family nesting. She entitled it "Family of Eagles." Both the President and the public loved it! Busiek went on to submit the same design for the Gold Eagle. After much lobbying, Congress was convinced the design would be well received, and so recommended it for the new coin.
