The 2021-W 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagle Designer Set is a special collector release celebrating a historic transition in the American Gold Eagle series. Produced by the United States Mint at West Point, this set includes two proof coins, each containing 1/10 troy ounce of .9167 fine (22-karat) gold, with a $5 USD face value per coin guaranteed by the U.S. government.
This unique set includes:
Type 1 Gold Eagle – featuring the classic reverse design by Miley Busiek, showing a family of bald eagles in a nest.
Type 2 Gold Eagle – showcasing the new bald eagle portrait designed by Jennie Norris, introduced in 2021 as the first redesign of the series’ reverse.
Both coins share the famous Lady Liberty obverse designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, depicting Liberty holding a torch and olive branch as she strides forward, symbolizing freedom and enlightenment.
Each coin is struck in a beautiful proof finish with mirror-like fields and frosted design elements. The coins are housed in individual protective capsules, placed together in the official U.S. Mint black presentation box, and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (COA).
With a limited mintage of only 5,000 sets, the 2021-W 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagle Designer Set represents a historic moment in the American Gold Eagle program and is highly sought after by both gold investors and numismatic collectors
