I am pretty sure the 1976 would have been a golden eagle, in celebration of our bicentennial.
That is when stuff was labeled that.

The golden Eagle was a trim package. it was indeed available in '77. The most notable features were a large eagle decal on the hood & gold painted "wagon stlye" wheels. Here's info from a 1978 Jeep brochure....I'm not sure what may have been different in "77.

Dealers Brochure."​

Golden Eagle Package:

The CJ Golden Eagle package includes tan Levi’s vinyl front bucket and rear bench seats with color keyed interior; full carpeting in brown; the Décor Group (substitutes black anodized rocker panel for chrome) and Convenience Group; tachometer and rally clock; five 8” spoked steel wheels painted gold with black accent stripes; 9-15 Tracket A-T outlined letter tires; wheellip extensions; roll bar; rear swing away spare tire carrier (CJ-7); fixed back panel and rear spare mounted (CJ-5); spare wheel lock; tan Levi’s soft top; special Golden Eagle hood decal with name lettering in gold and black; and body side, front fender and grille striping."
