⅒ oz Gold American Eagle Coins

The United States Mint issues Gold American Eagles as legal tender gold bullion coins for investment purposes, under congressional authority. The family of Gold Eagles consists of four sizes and face values. Though they are technically money, their face value is insignificant compared to their intrinsic value, and they do not circulate as coinage. By far, one of the most popular and most liquid sizes of almost all coins is the one-ounce $50 face value American Gold Eagle.

The oldest Gold American Eagle bullion coin has the date 1986. That year was the very first year of issue for the United States Mint Bullion Coin program.

The 1/10 oz Gold Eagle offers flexibility. Its smaller size allows investors to enter the gold market with a lower upfront cost and makes partial liquidation easier. Some investors also prefer fractional coins for incremental buying over time.

Ounce-for-ounce, fractional Gold Eagles typically carry higher premiums than gold bars of similar value. In exchange, investors receive a government-minted coin with strong recognition and liquidity, rather than a small-format bar that may be less practical to resell in fractional amounts.

Yes. The 1/10 oz Gold Eagle is often chosen for first-time purchases or gifts because it offers physical gold in a smaller, more accessible denomination than a full ounce.

Monex does not offer gold bars or gold coins at a spot gold price. The true spot gold price is merely a benchmark per-ounce price for gold, not a price for a particular product, and is a reference price associated with the present month of the COMEX futures contract. In fact, a genuine spot gold price is not truly a quote at all, because it is not where dealers offer to buy or sell, which are their ask and bid prices. Monex makes a market for buying and selling quoted as “Ask” and “Bid” prices. Ask prices for gold products reflect competitive marketplace conditions for a particular type of gold investment item. There are, however, charges that accompany transactions, which include buy/sell charges, shipping or storage fees depending if the customer chooses home or depository delivery. Monex quotes extremely competitive prices for gold bullion depository delivery. Monex publishes buy/sell commission charges, which depend on the size of a transaction. For greater transparency, the Monex marketplace is quoted live online on its Live Prices page or through the powerful Monex Bullion Investor smartphone app available for both Apple and Android smartphones.

The price is based on Monex’s current ask price and moves with the gold market throughout the day. Because prices change frequently, the most accurate quote is available by contacting an Account Representative or checking Monex’s live pricing.

Yes. Smaller gold coins generally carry higher premiums per ounce than larger denominations. The difference reflects higher production costs relative to gold content and increased demand for fractional sizes.
