The 2021-W 1 oz $50 Burnished Gold American Eagle Type 2 NGC MS 70 (John Boehner Signature) stands as a pivotal release in the history of U.S. coinage,  marking the debut of the Type 2 Gold Eagle design. Struck at the West Point Mint, this coin contains 1 troy ounce of .9167 fine gold (22-karat) and carries a $50 USD face value, fully guaranteed by the U.S. government. Graded by NGC as a flawless Mint State 70, it also features the exclusive John Boehner Signature Label, honoring the 53rd Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, adding political and collectible prestige to this already historic coin.

The Burnished Gold Eagle series offers a unique matte-like finish, achieved through the use of specially treated blanks that give each coin a soft, satin texture distinct from traditional bullion or proof strikes.
