In 2015, the global scene was dominated by geopolitical instability. The result was a growing demand for precious metals, particularly in light of improving economic conditions after the end of the Great Recession in 2011. For the 1/2 oz Proof Gold Eagle, growing demand in 2015 meant an increase in mintage by more than double, from 35,000 coins in 2014 to 75,000 coins in 2015.
Obverse designs on the 2015-W Proof American Gold Eagle include the famous Liberty design from Augustus Saint-Gaudens. Originally created in 1907, it features Liberty’s full-length figure in front-facing relief with a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left.
Reverse visuals on 2015-W 1/2 oz Proof Gold Eagle Coins feature an American bald eagle family. This design from Miley Busiek was created specifically for the Gold Eagle Series in 1986 and shows a male eagle soaring over the family nest as a female guards hatchlings within the nest.
