Notification of American Eagle Gold Proof and Silver Proof and 
Uncirculated Coin Price Increase

    Summary: The United States Mint is establishing prices for its 2007 
American Eagle Gold and Silver Coins.
    Pursuant to the authority that 31 U.S.C. 5111(a)(3) and 5112(e), 
(f), & (i) grant the Secretary of the Treasury to mint and issue gold 
and silver coins, and to prepare and distribute numismatic items, the 
United States Mint mints and issues American Eagle Gold Proof Coins in 
four denominations with the following weights: one-ounce, one-half 
ounce, one-quarter ounce, and one-tenth ounce. The United States Mint 
also produces a four-coin set that contains one coin of each 
denomination. In addition, the United States Mint produces American 
Eagle Silver Proof and Uncirculated coins with one ounce of silver in 
each coin. In accordance with 31 U.S.C. 9701(b)(2)(B), the United 
States Mint is changing the price of these coins to reflect the 
increase in value of the underlying precious metal content of the 
coins--the result of increases in the market price of gold and silver.
    Accordingly, effective February 1, 2007, the United States Mint 
will commence selling the following 2007 American Eagle gold and silver 
coins according to the following price schedule:
