1999 was the run up to the Y2K hysteria and there was a great deal of concern about whether or not the computers of the world would function properly when the date changed from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000. Many people bought gold and silver coins so that they would be able to barter if the monetary systems all became unusable.

In late 1999, there was unprecedented demand for smaller denomination American Gold Eagles. In my opinion, the US Mint had run out of regular dies for these coins and because of the demand, reached up on the shelf and utilized some dies that were prepared for Proof Only strikings.

Some people refer to these coins as errors, but I prefer to call them Emergency Issues, like the 1942/41 dimes.
