Eagle First

The US Mint is the country's primary producer of gold coinage used for private and federalized trading and commerce. The origins of the US Mint date back to the Coinage Act of 1792, which formally established the it as the producer and regulator of coinage in the US. The US mint network contains five key minting facilities:

Philadelphia Mint - The primary US Mint facility was located in the US' first capitol, Philadelphia. The US Mint Philadelphia facility was opened in 1793. A newer facility was established in 1969 and is still the country's primary mint facility and is responsible for the production of master die used for coinage designing and production.

San Francisco Mint - The first West coast gold coins contain an S marking to signify the fact that they were minted by the San Francisco mint. The demand for gold coins derived from gold metals found during the Gold Rush coast prompted the creation of the San Francisco mint, which produced over $4 million in gold coinage during its first year.

Denver Mint - Opened in 1863 as a response to the Pikes Peak Gold Rush. The mint liquidized, assayed and stamped gold brought in from the local mining areas. By 1906, the Denver mint had reserved enough gold and begun minting $20 Double Eagle gold coins. Standard Eagle, Quarter Eagle and Half Eagle gold coins were also done at Denver in smaller amounts. All Denver gold carries the D mintmark and original gold coinage retains significant value.

Carson City Mint - One of the few mints opened primarily for silver minting purposes. The Carson City mint began minting coins in 1870 using silver and gold from the large Comstock Lode mining facility. All gold coinage from the Carson City mint facility bares a CC mintmark. CC mint marked gold coins include various Eagle gold coins designed by Christian Gobrecht and even the very rare 1876 $0.20 cent piece.

West Point Mint - Established in 1937, West Point was only identified as a legitimate branch of the US Mint in 1988. The West Point Mint originally focused largely on silver minting and is largely known for its production of non-mint marked Lincoln cents from 1873 to 1986. The West Point W mark did not appear until 1983, when it was placed on the $10.00 Los Angeles Olympic Games commemoration gold coins.

Valued Gold Coins

Gold coins from the early years retain the most value due to their scarcity. Other valuable coins are appraised by their limited production, some of which have only been produced in runs of 50 coins or less as exclusive gifts. The Gold Eagle coin is the primary gold coin first authorized. It was originally designed by Robert Scot and minted in Philadelphia in the following configurations:

$10.00 Gold Eagle at 270 grains

$5.00 Gold Half Eagle at 135 grains

$2.50 Gold Quarter Eagle at 67 grains

Other mint facilities such as the San Francisco and Denver mint also provided Gold Eagle coins that were later designed by Christian Gobrecht. Some of the most value of its kind, where the $20.00 Double Gold Eagle coins of 1877, 1879 and 1880.

The First Eagle $11.62 When acting Lt. Jim Chee caught a Hopi eagle poacher red-handed and huddled over the body of a Navajo Tribal Police officer, he had an open-and-shut case -- at least until retired Navajo Tribal Police officer Joe Leaphorn showed up. Leaphorn was hired to find a biologist who disappeared from the same area on the same day the cop was murdered. To solve this one, Leaphorn and Chee must penetrate a web of scientists hunting the key to the most virulent form of bubonic plague since the Middle Ages.

Eagle $11.81 Salah ad-Din, or Saladin as he is known to the Franks, was a Kurd, the son of a despised people, and yet he became Sultan of Egypt and Syria. He united the peoples of Allah, recaptured Jerusalem, and drove the Crusaders to the very edge of the sea. He battled, and in the end tamed King Richard the Lionheart, who well deserved his savage name. He was a great man, the greatest man that I ever knew, but when I first met him, he was only a skinny child...- The Chronicle of Yahya al-Dimashq But alongside the legend of Saladin there is another story. When the Crusader army is routed beneath the walls of Damascus in 1148, a young Saxon named John is captured and enslaved. He is bought by Yusuf, a slight, bookish boy, for the price of a pair of sandals. And so begins the story of two enemies brought together by fate and of a friendship that will change the face of the Holy Land. Timid Yusuf will grow up to become the warrior Saladin, nicknamed 'the Eagle'; John will first teach his young master the art of war, before returning west to serve first the King of Jerusalem and then King Richard himself. From spectacular set-piece battles to the political manoeuvrings of the corrupt Crusader court, from the brutality of single combat to the sophistication of Islamic life, this is the first in a remarkable trilogy that will chart the story of the greatest leader the Middle East has ever known.

The Eagle $4.46 Beginning with "The Skystone," the first in his riveting Camulod Chronciles, Jack Whyte has embarked on an ambitious and remarkable re-telling of the Arthurian cycle, giving us a fresh and compelling take on a story that has been beloved for centuries. "The Eagle" brings us at last to the heart of the tale, the creation of fabled Camelot and the love story that enshrined its glory. Whyte takes us into the minds and lives of Arthur, Guinevere, and Lancelot, three astonishing but fallible people who were bound together by honor, loyalty, and love. Three who created the glory that was Britain's shining dream...and, some say, caused its downfall. The Gaulish nobleman Clothar--known in our time as Lancelot--is drawn to the young High King's court by tales of honor and nobility, where he meets a man whose love of law matches his own. More, he finds in Arthur a life-long friend whose dream of uniting the people of Britain in peace Clothar embraces. And Clothar meets Arthur's queen, a wondrous beauty whose passion and ideals match her husband's. Together they work to bring Arthur's dream to life. But dark forces rise in opposition to Arthur's plans for creating this noble island nation and it is hard to tell friend from foe in the swirling chaos that ensues. Many tales have been told of the dream that shined and died. This one will astonish even the most jaded.
