Legal Tender:
The 1oz American gold coin has a face value of $50 and is considered legal tender. However, the trading value is determined by the price of spot gold. Like all commodities, this value fluctuates with market prices as determined by various commodity exchanges. In the United States, the primary determiner of the gold price is the NYMEX (New York Mercantile Exchange). Their actual selling prices vary based on the current spot price of gold and the premium for the demand in the current market.
Design:
The obverse design features a rendition of Augustus Saint-Gaudens' full length figure of Lady Liberty with flowing hair, holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left, with the Capitol building in the background on the left. The reverse design of the American Gold Eagle, by sculptor Miley Busiek, features a male eagle carrying an olive branch flying above a nest containing a female eagle and their hatchlings. The American Gold Eagle is truly an iconic design.
The American eagle coin is IRA eligible. It is the only 22k coin that is IRA eligible as requirements generally are that gold bullion coins be from specific manufacturers and be 9999 fine gold, with the exception being the American Gold Eagle.
