Proof American Gold Eagle One Ounce - In Capsule (Dates Our Choice)

The Proof American Gold Eagles are an investment upgrade from their BU counterparts. They began their journey as a series the same time the BU American Gold Eagles did but they offer much more when it comes to value. The Proof American Gold Eagles have a finish that make them appear mirror-like and deserve to be protected. Collectors prefer the Proof American Gold Eagles because they are normally in a capsule for protection.

The purity, of the Proof American Gold Eagle, is 91.67% 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 ounce with an exact weight of 1.0909 troy ounces. This 22 kt alloy is traditionally know as crown gold and is an English standard.
