In 1995, the United States Mint celebrated the 10th anniversary of the American Eagle Collection.

Included within the mintage of the Proof American Gold Eagle coins for 1995 are those coins which were contributed to a popular 10th Anniversary American Eagle Coin Set. This set included one of each of the standard Proof Gold Eagles, along with a special Proof Silver Eagle struck by the San Francisco Mint.
The 10th-anniversary set had a mintage of 30,102 coins. This figure is reflected in the overall mintage of 45,388 coins in the 1/2 oz Proof Gold Eagle release. The 1/2 oz Proof American Gold Eagle was the only one of the four Gold Eagles to see its mintage figure increase compared to 1994, gaining 804 coins year over year.
All 1995 1/2 oz Proof American Gold Eagles available to you right now features a PF70 certification from the NGC. Considered a perfect specimen, these coins have full, original mint luster and lack any detracting flaws on the surface areas. The included UCAM label is reserved for proof coins with a combined clear background field and strong, frosted design elements.
The obverse side of 1995 Proof American Gold Eagles includes Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ iconic vision of Liberty. Designed in 1907, this image featured on the $20 Gold Double Eagle through 1933 when the US ceased coining gold coins for circulation.
On the reverse of the 1995 1/2 oz Proof American Gold Eagle is a family of bald eagles. The female eagle guards a hatchling under her wing within the family nest as a male flies overhead. Miley Busiek created this imagery in 1986 exclusively for use on the American Gold Eagle collection.
