In 1979 our vision of bringing nature to permanence gave us the inspiration to create the world's finest, botanically correct flowers. A small factory was opened in Taiwan and in 1989 we achieved a prominence in the world of artificial flowers that enable us to greatly expand and moved our operation to China. A well kept secret for many years, we are now expanding our services and showroom to the USA (Gold Eagle USA), Europe (House615) and our own shop in China (Haus658)

Gold Eagle - Europe
the NetherlandsThe American Gold Eagle was first issued in 1986 as the official gold bullion coin of the United States of America. The coins were authorized by Congress, under the American Eagle Bullion Program, as a method for investors to conveniently and cost effectively purchase precious metals. The weight, content, and purity of of Gold Eagles are guaranteed by the U.S. Government.
The obverse design for the series is based on the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, introduced into circulation in 1907. The iconic Liberty figure is portrayed striding forward with a torch in her right hand and olive branch in her left. The reverse of the coin was designed by Miley Busiek and features a male eagle bringing an olive branch to a nest of eagle hatchlings and female eagle.
Bullion and Collectible Gold Eagles
Since the launch of the series, different versions of Gold Eagle coins have been offered for investors and collectors. The bullion coins carry a standard finish and are considered to be precious metals investment coins. These are not sold directly to the public, but are distributed through a network of authorized purchasers. This network provides efficient distribution as well as a two way market for the bullion coins.
Proof Gold Eagles have been offered for collectors since 1986. These coins are manufactured through a specialized minting process, which includes multiple strikes with specially prepared dies to create a high quality finish. Proof coins generally display a cameo finish, where raised elements of the design are frosted and the background fields are mirrored. In 2006 the US Mint issued a special reverse proof Gold Eagle, which features the opposite effect.
In more recent years, the US Mint has offered a second numismatic version for collectors. These collectible uncirculated coins are struck on specially burnished blanks resulting in a finish similar to the bullion version. However, the coins contain the 'W' mint mark on the obverse for clear differentiation. This version was offered from 2006 to 2008, canceled for two years, and then resumed from 2011 to present.
Four Different Denominations
American Gold Eagle Coins are offered in four different sizes. The most popular size contains one troy ounce of gold content, with the remaining three options containing a standard fractional weight. Each size contains a different legal tender face value.
