Burnished American Gold Eagles were created with a matte finish as a collector version of the Gold Eagles. With advanced technology, the obverse now more closely resembles Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ original design of the Liberty figure. The reverse features a detailed profile of an American eagle, an image introduced last year. It was designed by U.S. Mint Artistic Infusion Program Designer Jennie Norris. These beautiful American Gold Eagles are certified and graded by NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation) as MS70 (Mint State). NGC is a highly respected grading company and one of the largest in the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cnoscript\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-bogus=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/noscript\u003e\u003cnoscript\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-bogus=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/noscript\u003e\u003cnoscript\u003e\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-245634 alignleft lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/5312\/9094\/files\/mercanti-signing_7de3310e-2883-40f5-adf3-edea605296ac.jpg?v=1761419757\" alt=\"\" width=\"110\" height=\"336\"\u003e\u003c\/noscript\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"pdp-specifications-header midline greyline whitebg darkblue\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoin Specifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli class=\"pdp-specifications-header midline greyline whitebg darkblue\"\u003eDenomination: - $50\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"pdp-specifications-header midline greyline whitebg darkblue\"\u003eFinish: - Proof\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"pdp-specifications-header midline greyline whitebg darkblue\"\u003eComposition: - 91.67% gold,3% silver, balance copper\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"pdp-specifications-header midline greyline whitebg darkblue\"\u003eGold Fine Weight: - 1.000 troy oz.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"pdp-specifications-header midline greyline whitebg darkblue\"\u003eDiameter: - 1.287 inches \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"pdp-specifications-header midline greyline whitebg darkblue\"\u003eEdge: - Reeded\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"pdp-specifications-header midline greyline whitebg darkblue\"\u003eMint and Mint Mark: - West Point – W\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eJennie Norris\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSince 1986, when the first American Gold Eagle was released, it has featured Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ revered Liberty on the obverse and a family of bald eagles in a nest on the reverse. To coincide with the 35th anniversary of both the Gold Eagle and Silver Eagle, the U.S. Mint is introducing new reverse designs for each coin in 2021. Norris’ dignified portrait of a bald eagle is the new Gold Eagle reverse. The eagle is shown in profile, with its strong, curved beak and thick plumage rendered meticulously. His gaze is at once intense and impenetrable, conveying, as Norris describes, “pride and wisdom passed down through generations of time.” Above the eagle’s portrait, inscriptions on the coin include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, and IN GOD WE TRUST. Norris recently joined the U.S. Mint’s Artistic Infusion Program (AIP), with the Gold Eagle reverse being her very first coin design. Her background is in graphic design, illustration, and fine art, and she is currently a graphic designer at the University of Arizona. A passionate nature lover, she strives to capture the fascinating details of plants and animals in work, as she did very successfully with the new Gold Eagle reverse. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*The coin pictured is only a representation of the coins you will receive, not the exact coins (serial numbers will vary).\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"U.S. Mint","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44008115273862,"sku":"2625","price":3495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/5312\/9094\/files\/2022-burnished-eagle-er-ngc-ms70-obv__93834.1655221881.1280.1280.jpg?v=1779757370","url":"https:\/\/lcrcoin.com\/products\/2022-w-burnished-american-gold-eagle-early-releases-ngc-ms70","provider":"LCR Coin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
