Burnished American Eagle Coins

About the Burnished American Eagle Coins
The U.S. Gold Bureau is proud to introduce an asset that separates the amateurs from the pros. The Burnished American Eagles aren’t just “minted”, these coins are crafted through a meticulous burnishing process that is so refined, there are total Burnished mintages that are smaller than Proof 70 populations. We’re talking about a supply so limited that it practically screams scarcity, and we both know what scarcity means in the investment world—underappreciated value. This isn’t just about owning a coin; this is about holding a piece of history, a tangible asset that’s been a store of value in ways other markets can only dream of. The Burnished American Eagles are waiting for you—and trust us, they won’t be around forever!
What Makes Burnished Eagle Coins Different?
Burnishing is a process of manufacturing. The U.S. Mint rolls planchettes (raw metal discs) in a drum filled with millions of tiny balls, each only 6mm in diameter. This process makes the coin smooth and removes imperfections. The coins come out with a stunning, matte-like finish.
Uncirculated quality coins are distinguished by the presence of a mint mark, indicating the facility where they were produced. The mintages are lower because producing a burnished coin is a labor-intensive process. Additionally, the burnished coin blanks are hand-fed into specially adapted coining presses one at a time. Many knowledgeable coin experts believe the burnishing process helps the coins look immaculate for significantly longer than other means of production.
Why Consider Adding Burnished American Eagles to your Portfolio?
Rarity drives value, and Burnished American Eagles are the rarest American Eagles. Burnished Silver American Eagles have been made annually since 2006 (except in 2009 and 2010). Despite their history and rarity, the market has just started taking notice in the last few years. As more people seek inflation protection, the demand for tangible assets is skyrocketing. More people are taking notice of Burnished American Eagles as a diversification strategy and an affordable way to own American Eagles.

The Ed Moy Signature Series: A U.S. Gold Bureau Exclusive
The U.S. Gold Bureau has partnered with Edmund C. Moy, former Director of the U.S. Mint, to offer exclusive hand-signed certification labels—an opportunity available only through our organization. This unique collaboration provides investors with access to a limited population of certified coins that carry the signature of one of the most influential figures in modern U.S. Mint history.
Edmund C. Moy served as the 38th Director of the United States Mint and brings a distinguished background as an economist, author, and public speaker. He also served for over five years as Special Assistant to President George W. Bush, playing a key role in the post-9/11 transition to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. During his first year leading the Mint, over $1 billion in numismatic products were sold and more than 16 billion coins were struck. His tenure also saw the launch of the 50 State Quarters Program, the Presidential $1 Coin series, and the National Parks Quarter Program—while overseeing record-breaking demand for gold and silver during the financial crisis and recession.
Coins featuring Ed Moy’s hand-signed certification labels have drawn significant attention in the precious metals community, often commanding premiums at auction due to their rarity and credibility.
