2007-W American Silver Eagle Burnished Die Uncirculated

2007-W American Silver Eagle containing 1 Troy oz of .999 fine silver, in original mint packaging.

Starting in 2006 the U.S. Mint issued a special collector's version of the American Silver Eagle that was minted using burnished dies and sold in special packaging and in certain Mint sets. They are not proof coins, but are sold as Uncirculated Silver Eagles. They are minted at West Point, so they carry the "W" mint mark, while the bullion Silver Eagles are minted at the Philadelphia Mint (no mint-mark).

None have been minted since 2008, and it is unknown if the burnished Silver Eagles will be revived in the future.

Mintages are much lower than for the bullion coins, in 2007 over 9 million Silver Eagle bullion coins were minted, versus 621,333 of the 2007-W Silver Eagles.
