2018-W $50 1 Ounce Burnished Gold American Eagle PCGS SP70 FS Flag Label

The 2018 Burnished Gold Eagles Are Here!

Ever since their debut in 2006, the Burnished $50 Gold Eagle has consistently been one of the scarcest Gold Eagles in the flock! Struck specifically for collectors by the West Point Mint, Burnished Gold Eagles are created from specially prepared 22-karat gold blanks that give each coin a distinctive smooth, matte-like surface, as well as razor-sharp details and blazing luster.

No wonder Eagle fans around the world snap them up in short order every year they’re issued!

But some are bound to be disappointed. Just 5,853 Burnished Gold Eagles were struck in 2017, compared the millions of their regular-issue counterparts. That’s why you can expect that this year’s 2018 –dated mintage of 10,000 coins will be in demand once again – particularly those bearing the coveted First Day of issue (FDI) designation.

But now you can get a jump on the competition – and be first in line for 2018’s top-graded coins. Your 2018-W One-Ounce Burnished Gold American Eagle will come graded by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) to be in perfect Specimen-70 (SP70) condition, a distinction that means your perfectly-graded coin will have ZERO imperfections – showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended! Your Burnished Gold Eagle will also be certified as a First Strike (FS) coin by PCGS, meaning that your coin was among the first struck by the mint and was verified within the first 30 days of issue. Your coin will be sonically sealed in an acrylic case with a flag label – providing you the best in protection while giving you clear sightlines and perfect visual contrast for every beautiful detail.
