{{/presale}} {{#promotion_on}}In 2026, the United States Mint celebrates four decades of American Eagle gold bullion coins. The series launched in 1986 and represented the first steady return to gold coin production at the US Mint after a long pause that dated back to 1933. Gold Eagles are not produced for circulation, but they are official U.S. legal tender and are widely collected for their gold content and familiar national designs. Right now, 2026 1/2 oz American Gold Eagle Coins in certified condition are available online from BGASC.
Highlights:
These 2026 1/2 oz American Gold Eagle Coins are available with a Mint State 69 grade from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation. Coins in MS69 condition retain complete mint luster and show only small, limited marks that dont draw attention from the main design elements. The Early Release label means the coins were submitted for grading within 30 days of leaving the mint.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2026 1/2 oz Gold Eagle features Lady Liberty as designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens for the historic $20 Double Eagle. This image shows Liberty walking forward in a calm but determined pose, carrying a torch and an olive branch. Sunrays fill the background, the U.S. Capitol rests near the lower portion of the design, and stars surround the outer rim.
Reverse
On the reverse of 2026 American Gold Eagles is the updated bald eagle portrait created by Jennie Norris in 2020. This design presents a close look at the eagles head, highlighting its eye, beak, and feather detail. The modern style offers a clear contrast to earlier versions while still fitting the overall Gold Eagle theme.
History
The 1/2 oz Gold Eagle has been a regular part of the American Gold Eagle program since 1986. The Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985 authorized the collection, which includes the 1 oz coin and three fractional sizes. Each 1/2 oz coin contains one-half troy ounce of 22-karat gold and holds a $25 denomination, giving buyers a flexible size between the larger and smaller options.
