America’s Official Gold Coin

The coin’s gold is sourced exclusively from American mines, and its weight, content, and purity are guaranteed by the United States government by law — making it one of the most legally protected gold investments in the world. The 1/2 oz denomination ($25 face value) has been part of the program since its very first year.
