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 are an extremely popular way of buying gold. Each coin is guaranteed by the US Mint and Treasury for it's weight and purity. .

The Certified American Gold Eagle 4pc Set 2002 MS69 NGC contains 4 coins in separate holders. Certified coins are trusted more and help calm worried minds when it comes to their value and authenticity. The purity, of the American Gold Eagle, is 91.67% gold but contains 1/10 troy ounce of pure gold. The additional metals in the coins are copper and silver 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 1/10 ounce with an exact weight. This 22 karat alloy is traditionally know as crown gold and is an English standard.
