Record numbers of American Eagle gold coins are being snapped up by investors across the world, the company has announced.

American Eagle suggests that this is due to its coins having a high gold content and investors are specifically looking to purchase gold coins in order to acquire a secure investment so that currency fluctuations are offset.

Another reason for American Eagle's gold coin success can be attributed to the fact the firm's product is one of the few that are rubber stamped by the US government to guarantee the coins' weight, content and purity.

DeMeritt of Lear Financial, the parent company of Gold Central, stated: "This is the best way for the small investor to enter the gold market with an investment in gold coins."

Back in 1986 was when American Eagle minted its first gold coin and its 22-carat offerings can now be purchased in one ounce, half ounce, quarter ounce or one tenths of an ounce quantities.
