The release of the new Type 2 Proof American Gold Eagle from the United States Mint comes with limited mintages. The US Mint has a strict mintage limit for the traditional packaging of individual Proof Gold Eagles. The mintage cap of 3,375 coins for the 1/4 oz gold coin is the second-highest behind only the 1/10 oz gold coin and its mintage limit of 10,000 gold coins.

All of the 2021-W 1/4 oz Proof American Gold Eagle Type 2s in this product listing comes with traditional US Mint packaging for proof coins. The coins are housed in acrylic capsules and set within a black presentation box. The packaging comes with a Certificate of Authenticity that bears the obverse imagery, while the outer sleeve that holds the black presentation box comes with an artistic depiction of the new Type 2 reverse.

On the obverse of 2021-W Proof American Gold Eagle Coins is the historic image of Lady Liberty. Designed in 1907 by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, this vision showcases Liberty in front-facing relief. The stars, torch, sun rays, and the U.S. Capitol Building have all been enhanced in the Type 2 release to bring the imagery closer to the original artwork from 1907.

The reverse side of the 2021-W 1/4 oz Proof Gold Eagles features the new bald eagle depiction from Jennie Norris. This vision shows the head of a bald eagle in left-profile relief that captures all the detail of its plumage.
