Masterworks by American Artists
Augustus Saint Gaudens is an Irish born sculptor who had a reputation for producing iconic pieces of art that perfectly captured the essence of the American Dream. He was raised on the streets of New York city, and began his apprenticeship there before going to France to finish it, upon his return he became responsible for such works as the Robert Gould Shaw Memorial. Works such as these established him as one of the great American artists, and the Lady Liberty on the obverse side of the coin is just one more example of his skill.
Miley Busiek is a well-known artist within the United States, her work gracing the halls of the Smithsonian History Museum and the White House Oval Office, just to name a couple. She seems to be able to work in any medium that comes under her hands, from bronze and steel, to cast stone and obviously gold. The magnificent eagle descending on its nest is a prime example of how she can capture the very essence of an idea and bring it out in her craft.
This coin is the perfect gift for your favorite patriot, or a wise investment for those looking to ensure their future security in pure 22kt gold.
