American Arts Gold Medals (1980–1984)
The American Arts Gold Medallions were issued from 1980 to 1984 as a series of Congressionally mandated gold bullion pieces. For each year of the series, separate one ounce and one-half ounce pieces were produced featuring famous American artists. While the series experienced slow sales and was deemed by some as a failure, it did set the stage for the immensely popular and successful American Eagle gold and silver bullion coin series.
