MORE PICS TO COME! American Eagle Gold Coin Set 14k SOLID GOLD Commemorative Coins Set Each 0.5g. One of today’s most famous gold dollar coins is the American Gold Eagle with the legendary heraldic Bald Eagle of the USA. They were minted by the U. Mint from 1795 to 1933, as official circulating currency. Nearly 500,000 gold coins became victim of the world economic crisis: due to the threat of deflation, all the gold that could be found was seized and melted down to bullion bars, including the newly minted gold Double Eagles. Just 20 of the original Double Eagle coins are known to have survived and disappeared in mysterious circumstances. It is believed thatone of the minting officials took them out of the mint before they could be melted down. In 1944, the U. Secret Service managed to locate nine of the stolen gold coins, which were subsequentlydestroyed. One of the last gold 1933 Double Eagles was acquired by King Farouk of Egypt, and mistakenly, just days before the mint theft was discovered, an export license was granted. In 1996, a Double Eagle coin surfaced again after over forty years of obscurity, when British coin dealer Stephen Fenton was arrested by U. The case was settled in 2001 when it was agreed that ownership of the Double Eagle would revert to the U. Her thick curly hair is confined in a hairband that features the inscription’Liberty’. A circle of 13 stars surround Liberty’s head and the letters’E PLURIBUS UNUM’ were omitted. The Classic Head was designed by Engraver William Kneass and used until 1839. Due to its popularity, this gold coin experienced a brief’comeback’ in 1929, which was ended by the American Wall-Street crash, the’Black Thursday’ of thefinancial markets in the same year. The gold Turban Head Eagle, also known as the Capped Bust Eagle, was struck by the U. S Mint from 1795 to 1804. Its name is a misnomer as Liberty is not actually wearing a turban but in fact a cap, believed to be a Phrygian (Liberty cap), with her hair twisted around the cap resembling a turban. It was designed by Robert Scot and features a small Eagleon the reverse. The Turban Head with profile to the right, featured only a small eagle on the reverse. However, between 1795 and 1798 a second version was circulated, featuring a much larger Bald Eagle as a heraldic symbol on thereverse. From 1798 onwards the national symbol has remained larger. The Bald Eagle has been the heraldic symbol of the USA since 1782 and has been publicly used ever since.
