Description
After 25 years in the coin industry, few things still leave me speechless—but securing the actual 4th Silver Eagle and 4th Gold Eagle struck with the U.S. Mint’s groundbreaking Type 2 design in 2021 did exactly that. Global Coin had the extraordinary privilege of acquiring these historic pieces, the only such pairing from the earliest production to grade perfect MS70 by NGC on the market.
The first Type 2 set sold at auction for $180,000 ungraded—and that set may now approach seven figures. This is the next great legacy set: of the first 10 sets minted, only one other has achieved flawless MS70 condition across both coins. These coins transcend numismatics; they are tangible American history. Items of this caliber typically enter permanent collections at the Smithsonian Institution for public reverence. Instead, Global Coin is privileged to offer this singular set to a select circle of our high-net-worth clients.
This once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a cornerstone of U.S. Mint history arises only a handful of times per lifetime. There is only one…
A Pivotal Moment in Eagle History
The 2021 Type 2 redesign marked the most significant update to the American Gold and Silver Eagles since their inception, immediately capturing global attention from collectors and investors. While billions more Type 2 Eagles will be produced over time, only one pair will forever hold the title of the fourth struck in each metal. This “Dusk Til Dawn” Set preserves that exact historic position.
As Stephen Pfeil, founder of Global Coin, states: “These aren’t just coins. This is living American history—something your great-grandkids will read about in history books, then realize they can hold in their own hands. The 4th set ever made. The second ever graded in flawless MS70 condition. It’s not just metal—it’s legacy.”
Perfection Certified: MS70 Rarity
Both the 4th Gold and 4th Silver Type 2 Eagles have been certified in perfect MS70 condition by NGC, confirming pristine surfaces, razor-sharp details, and immaculate preservation with no imperfections. Of the first 10 sets produced, this is only the second known pairing to achieve this elite grade across both coins. The rarity is compounded by the historical significance: these are not random high-grade examples, but specifically the fourth coins produced in the new era.
U.S. Mint Legacy
Struck during the landmark 2021 transition at the United States Mint, these coins embody the precision and innovation of modern American minting. The Type 2 design refresh—retaining Saint-Gaudens’ Liberty on the obverse while introducing a bold new eagle reverse—ushered in a new chapter for the series. Owning the fourth coins struck immortalizes that moment in time.
Iconic American Design
-
Obverse (both coins): Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ timeless Lady Liberty, striding forward with torch and olive branch, symbolizing freedom and peace.
-
Reverse (Type 2): Jennie Norris’ dynamic eagle in flight, carrying an oak branch—representing strength, renewal, and America’s enduring spirit.
The Historic Dusk Til Dawn Type 2 Eagle Set—the 4th Gold and 4th Silver Eagle struck in U.S. Mint history—stands as a defining trophy of rarity, historical weight, and flawless quality. This unparalleled pairing of early-strike masterpieces, graded perfect MS70 by NGC (with only one other from the first 10 sets achieving this distinction), offers unmatched legacy value for discerning collectors who acquire meaning over metal. It is a once-in-a-generation piece of American heritage—scarce, symbolic, and undeniably powerful.
