Nells250 Pillar of the Community United States 781 Posts	Posted 01/25/2023 3:16 pm Nice quick answer to my quick question! I asked because it seemed every single 2016 coin I was seeing was listed as having the lettered edge. NOW I know that those weren't the usual bullion coins, but the UNC coins sold by the Mint. Quote: In 2016, proof and uncirculated versions will have a smooth edge bearing lettering incused with a designation that notes the 30th anniversary of the first issue of coins. ... NOT bullion. I still have to remind myself that there are TWO versions of non-proof Eagles... Report this Post to the Staff

If you mean Bullion and Burnished, then yes. Terminology is always confusing when it comes to ASEs, but annual releases usually come down to these: o Bullion o Proof (with many possible variants and Mint Marks... proof, reverse proof, enhanced reverse proof, etc., privy marks, etc.) o Burnished Report this Post to the Staff
