Description
The 2021 American Eagle Ten Dollar Gold - Type 2 is part of the American Eagle Ten Dollar Gold 1986 to Date series. The U.S. Mint produced 108,000 examples, making this the highest mintage among 3 variants, accounting for 62% of the year's production. The obverse features Liberty striding forward holding a torch and olive branch, with rays of sunlight behind her — widely considered the most beautiful U.S. coin design — adapted from the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle and the reverse displays a family of eagles — an adult and two juveniles — in a nest, designed by Miley Busiek (1986-2020) or an eagle portrait by Jennie Norris, the redesigned reverse introduced in 2021 (2021+). A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Auction record: $501 MS70 05-01-2022 David Lawrence RC. Struck in 91.67% gold, 3% silver, 5.33% copper, weighing 8.48 grams, 32.7 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #885843.
