Burnished American Eagle coins from the U.S. Mint are made using a special process that creates their soft matte finish. These coins are different from proofs because they start with planchets that have been polished with stainless steel pellets inside a rotating drum. This method smooths the surface before the coin is struck. BGASC is proud to offer the 2025-W 1 oz Burnished American Gold Eagle Coins.

Obverse

The obverse showcases Augustus Saint-Gaudens well-known design of Lady Liberty. She is seen walking forward, holding a torch and an olive branch, with sun rays fanning out behind her. The U.S. Capitol sits at the base of the image, and stars circle the designs border.

Reverse

The reverse displays a left-facing portrait of the American bald eagle, focusing on its head in great detail. Jennie Norris designed this modern take in 2020, and it began appearing on Gold Eagles in 2021.

History

After the polishing step, each coin is struck once using specially prepared dies and presses. This one-time strike results in the unique frosted surface that distinguishes burnished coins from other formats like bullion and proof versions.
