image Marion Anderson (1980) Half-Ounce Gold issued as part of the American Arts Commemorative Series. (Half-Ounce AGW) In this series, one half-ounce and one one-ounce were issued each year for five consecutive years by the US Mint 1980 to 1984 to honor artists from a variety of fields. This program was the precursor to the American Eagle program which yielded the Gold and Silver American Eagles starting in 1986. (Image)

Cat No: One-Ounce Grant W

image Grant Wood (1980) One-Ounce Gold Medal issued as part of the American Arts Commemorative Series. (1 ozt AGW) (See the previous lot description for more information.) The Grant Wood and Marion Anderson medals were the initial issues of this series. Later issues featured Louis Armstrong, Mark Twain, and Frank Lloyd Wright, just to name a few. Initial interest in the program was high as American citizens were eager to own US Mint-issued gold. But interest waned as the program continued resulting in much smaller mintages as the years progressed. This cataloger believes that a primary reason for this is that, unlike Gold Eagles, the American Arts Commemoratives were minted as bullion coins only, and fail to have any legal tender status. That notwithstanding, they have an interesting history, are attractive in design, and worth their full weight in precious metal, but are generally overlooked by present collectors. (Image)
