The US Mint has stopped selling Gold American Eagles This was reported by Bloomberg News on 11/25/09
" Nov. 25 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. Mint has suspended sales of most American Eagle coins made from precious metals including gold and silver, citing depleted inventories of the metals after sales surged 88 percent in the first 10 months of this year.
Sales will resume "once sufficient inventories of gold- bullion blanks can be acquired to meet market demand," the mint said in a statement posted on its Web site. Gold coins affected by the suspension include the American Eagle. The uncirculated versions of the 2009 coins won't be resumed, the mint said.

The exact same coin with a different serial # sold on e-bay yesterday for $695 - ( Which is almost $200 over spot ) Similar recent sales have been in this price range.
I can walk into a downtown Portland bullion dealer and They will give me $30 over the current spot price for a regular Gold eagle that is not graded by the NGC. See link AJPM
