Burnished American Silver Eagles were created as collector versions of the US Mint’s Bullion Silver Eagles. With a matte finish, these burnished coins depict the same design as the bullion coins.
The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty. With advancements in technology, the Silver Eagles’ design more closely resembles Weinman’s original vision and includes his artist mark.
The reverse shows an eagle coming in for a landing, an exciting design that was first introduced in 2021. It was engraved by acclaimed medallic artist Michael Gaudioso, who signs certification labels exclusively for NGC. 2024-W Uncirculated Silver Eagles certified with the NGC Michael Gaudioso Signature Label will be available through select retailers.
