Struck from 1 troy ounce of .9167 fine gold, this Burnished Gold American Eagle features a distinctive matte-like finish, achieved through a specialized minting process. Certified by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as MS 70, this coin holds the highest possible grade, signifying a flawless strike with no visible imperfections. With its West Point Mint ("W") mark, this coin is a sought-after collector’s edition of the American Gold Eagle series.
The American Gold Eagle series was first introduced in 1986, following the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985. In 2006, the U.S. Mint released the Burnished Gold Eagle, a collector-focused version of its famous bullion coin. Unlike standard bullion coins, Burnished Eagles undergo a special striking process, where planchets are individually polished before minting, creating a satin-like finish. These coins are produced in limited quantities and bear the West Point Mint ("W") mark, distinguishing them from their standard counterparts.
