First introduced in 1986, the Gold Eagle program includes a 1 oz gold coin as well as three fractional-ounce versions.

The 1/4 oz Gold Eagle, like the 1/2 oz Gold Eagle, hit its mintage high back in 1986 when the series was introduced by the United States Mint. That debut issue surpassed 726,000 coins, but the closest it has come since was in 1999 during the Y2K crisis. That year saw mintage of the 1/4 oz Gold Eagle surpass 564,000 coins.

On the obverse of 2026 American Gold Eagles, the United States Mint continues to use Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ classic design of Lady Liberty. Originally created in 1907, this image presents a front-facing view of Liberty in full length, striding toward the viewer. She holds a torch in her right hand, symbolizing enlightenment, and an olive branch in her left hand, representing peace.

The reverse side of 2026 1/4 oz Gold Eagle Coins features a modern depiction of the American bald eagle. First introduced to the series in 2021, this left-profile portrait of the eagle’s head was designed by Jennie Norris. This design update debuted during the 35th anniversary of the series and continues to appear on the coins today.
