The quarter ounce Gold Eagle lands between the tenth and the half, and it is often the size buyers settle on once they have handled all four. Real gold weight, a manageable price per coin, and enough liquidity to sell anywhere. The 2025 issue holds 1/4 troy ounce of gold in the series’ 22-karat alloy, carries a $10 face value, and comes with a U.S. government guarantee of weight, content, and purity.
Key Features:
- Purity and Weight: 1/4 troy oz of gold; 91.67% gold with copper and silver, 8.483 grams gross
- Metal Type: 22-karat gold, struck by the United States Mint
- Obverse Design: Striding Liberty adapted from Augustus Saint-Gaudens
- Reverse Design: Bald eagle portrait by Jennie Norris
The obverse carries Saint-Gaudens’ Liberty advancing forward, a torch held high in one hand and an olive branch extended in the other, her gown gathered in motion around her. Sunburst rays fan across the field behind, the Capitol dome appears at the lower left, and LIBERTY arcs across the top between rows of stars. 2025 sits in the right field. The figure comes from the 1907 Double Eagle, still widely regarded as the finest American coin design ever struck.
The reverse shows Jennie Norris’ close portrait of a bald eagle in left-facing profile, adopted in 2021. Feather detail runs across the crown and neck in fine relief, with the eye and hooked beak cut sharply. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA curves across the top with E PLURIBUS UNUM and IN GOD WE TRUST beneath, while 10 DOLLARS and 1/4 OZ. FINE GOLD run along the bottom between stars.
The coin measures 22 mm across and 1.83 mm thick, with a reeded edge. Brilliant Uncirculated pieces come off the dies bright and fully struck, shipping in protective flips or tubes depending on quantity.
The 22-karat alloy holds up to handling better than pure gold, which is worth something on a coin you may actually move. Order yours today and we will ship it insured in discreet packaging.
