  • $10 Eagle Gold Coins at Provident Metals

    The $10 Eagle was a gold coin produced by the US Mint since the late 1700s. These coins boasted a high level of purity as well as multiple iconic designs that make them a popular choice for collectors and investors to this day. Learn all about these well-known coins that we offer here at Provident Metals.

    History of $10 Eagle Gold Coins

    Eagles were introduced by the United States Mint in 1795 and were in circulation until 1933 when all gold coinage was halted. $10 Eagle Gold Coins were authorized by the Coinage Act of 1792. The eagle was the largest of the main base units of denomination along with the mill, cent, dime, and dollar. The eagle also served as the basis for the quarter eagle, half eagle, and double eagle.

    The first $10 Eagle Gold Coins featured what is commonly known as the Turban Head design on the obverse. These coins featured a right-profile portrait of Lady Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap with her hair wrapped around it, making it look like a turban. These coins were produced from 1795 to 1804.

    Pre-33 $10 Liberty Eagle Gold Coins

    Among the most popular designs in all American Gold coinage is the Pre-33 $10 Liberty Eagle Gold Coin. These coins were designed by Christian Gobrecht, the third Chief Engraver of the United States Mint.

    These coins featuring Gobrecht’s design were used from 1838-1907. Notably, the Coinage Act of 1837 required all gold coinage to contain 90% of actual gold content. Thus, every Pre-33 $10 Liberty Eagle Gold Coin contains 90% gold content with the remaining 10% being made up of a silver and copper alloy mixture.

    • Obverse: The obverse of these coins showcases a portrait of Lady Liberty in left-profile relief wearing a coronet crown. The word “Liberty” is prominently displayed on the crown while her hair is done in a bun. 13 stars, representing the original 13 colonies encircle the portrait. This design was featured on these coins from 1838-1907.
    • Reverse: The reverse of these well-known coins displays a heraldic eagle, similar to the Great Seal of the United States. The eagle is in front-facing relief with a shield on its chest, clutching an olive branch in one talon and three arrows in the other. This design remained the same from 1838 to 1866. From 1866 on, the motto “In God We Trust” was added to the reverse above the eagle’s head.

    Pre-33 $10 Indian Eagle Gold Coins

    President Theodore Roosevelt wanted new, more artistic designs on US coins starting in 1904. Thus, the president reached out to his friend, Augustus Saint-Gaudens, to help. The new designs were under incredible delays as Saint-Gaudens was undergoing major health concerns, that ultimately took his life in 1907 before the coins were ever released.

    Another delay was caused by the design being in high relief. As such, Charles E. Barber, Chief Engraver at the time, modified the design to a lower relief, allowing for just one strike to produce the design. Saint-Gaudens completed the designs for this eagle as well as the double eagle before his death.

    These coins were issued from 1907 to 1933. However, they were irregularly issued from 1916-1933.

    • Obverse: The obverse field of these coins remained the same from 1907-1933. This design features a unique depiction of Liberty in left-profile relief wearing an Indian headdress consisting of feathers. 13 stars, representing the 13 original colonies, are displayed above Liberty.
    • Reverse: The reverse side of these gold coins features an eagle standing on a sheaf of arrows. An olive branch is seen encircling the arrows. Identifying marks of the coin are seen surrounding the image. Notably, the design had an alteration in 1908, when “In God We Trust” was added to the left of the eagle.

    Commemorative $10 Eagle Gold Coins

    Gold coinage was stopped in 1933. However, as part of the United States commemorative coins program, the US Mint has issued several commemorative eagle coins throughout the years. Multiple coins have been issued over the years to celebrate momentous occasions or anniversaries such as the 1984 Summer Olympics Eagle Gold Coin or the 2003 Eagle Gold Coin to celebrate the Wright brothers’ first flight. These commemorative coins have allowed the eagle to have a long-lasting legacy past 1933.
