Burnished coins are soft and matte-like in finish. They're shinier than a BU Silver Eagle, but not as shiny or as bright as a Proof Silver Eagle Coin. Burnished coins are smooth to the touch and feature a lot of detail.
Instituted in 1792, the United States Mint has grown from a single, tiny minting facility in Philadelphia to a mammoth national mint with four minting facilities under it. As each of these branches boasts an astounding output potential, the United States Mint is capable of striking 30 million coins in a single day. Each of these 2020 American Silver Eagle Burnished coins contains 1 troy ounce of 99.9% pure silver. Moreover, it also bears an official face value of $1 (USD), guaranteed by the United States Government.
The obverses of these coins display the beautiful handiwork of the sculptor, Adolph A. Weinman – the famed “Walking Liberty” design. Ever since this design was created in 1916 for the Silver Half-Dollar coin at the time, it has been considered one of the most elegant designs ever to feature on American coinage. Meanwhile, the reverses of these burnished coins feature a design inspired by the National Seal of the United States of America. John Mercanti, the Chief Engraver of the United States Mint at the time, rendered this design for use on American Silver Eagles in 1986.
