Certified American $25 Gold Eagle 2005 MS70 NGC

The Certified American $25 Gold Eagle 2005 MS70 NGC offers a 1/2 oz gold eagle, preserved in an official NGC holder, with the high ranking grade of MS70. Since MS70 is the highly coveted grade among coin collectors, coins with this grade usually sell at a higher price point. In 1986, the United States began striking gold and silver bullion coins to compete with world bullion coins such as the Canadian Maple Leaf, the South African Krugerrand, and others.

The American Gold Eagles from Golden Eagle Coins are an extremely popular way of buying gold. Each coin is guaranteed by the US Mint and Treasury for it's weight and purity. Golden Eagle also inspects each coin before shipping to ensure the highest quality of coins. The purity, of the American Gold Eagle, is 91.67% gold but contains 1/2 troy ounce of pure gold. The additional metals in the coins are copper (5%) and silver (3%) creating a purity of 22 karat. This additional metal is added to keep the coin from scratching as gold is actually a softer metal and can scratch easily in it's pure state. The coin is actually more than one 1/2 ounce with an exact weight. This 22 kt alloy is traditionally know as crown gold and is an English standard.
