    Well I wouldnt say it will hold down the burnished coins, but obviously the reverse proofs are rarer. Also note what about the emergency issues from the philadelphia mint with no mint marks. Those had to be submitted in the monster boxes to the grading companies. I am guilty of buying one from 2021 and one from 2020, graded by NGC in mint state 69. Thats all I could afford. So hoping those too will be worth something for my daughter in the future. I try to stay as diverse as I can. Like I got the limited edition proof sets from the US mint. The year when both the old and the new issue Eagles were included. What will be the mint production numbers for them to make them a rarity. So I look at it from all points of view. Even the congratulations folders, ETC. Well thanks again to everybody who helped on this post. Be well all.

    I dont know some of these uncirculated burnished coins have a lower mintage and could be quite valuable. Im in no big hurry right now. Watching the numbers. I only get one in my US mint enrollment program anyway, but thinking about upping it to two on the uncirculateds

    I dont know I dont like the way the F in of looks so warn down and blotchy spot in God we trust. How can the f wear down at top if wing an edge are still good. Same thing on the Liberty letters so light without other wear around the area. No expert just my visual comment.

    I was wondering and trying to confirm some information about burnished silver eagles. Ive heard that all west point mint marks on uncirculated silver eagles after 2006 are "burnished" coins. I'm trying to determine the value of my collection and when I was going thru the red book I see burnished coins. Not really a newbie to coin collecting, but a newbie who started on silver eagles to step up my game. Can somebody please clarify this for me. Another member made me laugh stating if I mention David Lange's name he will pop up like the Bat light went on.
