Historical Background
Gold Eagles were struck by the U.S. Mint from 1795 until 1933, when all U.S. gold coins were recalled per the executive order of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. With a face value of $10, the gold Eagle served as the base unit of denomination for all gold coinage in the United States for nearly 140 years. The convenience of this denomination made the gold Eagle one of the most widely circulated coin types in American history. Until 1849, with the introduction of the $20 Double Eagle gold coin, Eagles were the largest gold coin denomination produced by the U.S. Mint.
