Sweet ,

Imo, There is Nothing like a Perfect " Uncirculated " Finish American Silver Eagle, or Most Other Uncirculated Coins.... I have Always Appreciated the " under dog ", ( usually Less Minted and Usually Less Collected historically ) Best Wishes Collecting. You've made a Good Investment Are your plans to collect the ASE Series too.

Better pics please and what did it cost you. Coins at gun shows are usually overpriced.

There was a process for "burnished" ASE's at one point but, no longer, think it changed/stopped 2013 ish, to keep cost down. The simple addition of the "W" mint mark, now is apparently enough to call it "burnished".

Do you have a source for that? I agree that the mint has stopped referring to uncirculated coins as "burnished" and doesn't mention special planchets in the product pages in recent years, but I don't recall hearing anything official about it.

@ Celtic, I can't seem to locate it, I'll keep digging, but I think it might have been coin news, nothing from the mint.

I have the 2021 Burnished and a 2021 S Emergency Release, both type 2, both MS70 grade by NGC (NGC doesn't use "SP" designation), the finish on both a very similar, in fact, the S mint is a bit more satiny, neither look like my 2008, reverse of 2007 http://goccf.com/t/436255&SearchTerms=2008 . Trying to get good side by side images in the slabs, is proving difficult.

Way back When 1986 the ASE Series Began. The term Burnished was not used. Where did the " Uncirculated" Finished Coins Go, in the American Silver Eagle Series The coins ceased to be Made, No Longer an Uncirculated Coin, Just Burnished!. The term " Burnished " was Incorporated, into the series I believe in 2006, and away to history the Uncirculated term went.

WHY .. I personally do not understand the Hand Held Discernible differences, That's just me. Back in 1986 the term Burnished was NOT used......
