Interesting fact

The American Gold Eagle coin has a unique feature - it has a mintage limit. The mintage limit is the number of coins that the mint is allowed to produce in a year. This limit is set by law, and it's different for each denomination of the coin. For example, the $50 denomination has a mintage limit of 40,000 coins, while the $25 denomination has a limit of 75,000 coins. This limit is in place to help maintain the value of the coin and to prevent overproduction.
