All West Point Burnished Silver Eagles MS70 ER

Category:  Series Sets

Set Description
To date the West Point Mint has produced 5 different burnished silver eagles. The coins in this set are all up to date and in perfect MS70 condition, with all having early release status, by NGC. The set includes the 2006W, 2007W, 2008W, 2008W Reverse over 2007 and the 2011W. Time will tell if the West Point Mint will continue to strike these coins in the future. Finally the 2008W Reverse over 2007 has a very low mintage and may be a good investment.

Set Goals
Continue to collect burnished silver eagles from the West Point Mint and keep this set going. Who knows if 2011 burnished eagles will be the last year they make them or what years down the road will be left out as demonstrated by the mint in 2009 and 2010. I am still on the fence about collection the entire set of MS silver eagles, so this start keeps me interested and watching these coins.

View Coin Burnished Silver Eagle-2 West Point Mint Mark ER United States S$1 2007 W EAGLE BURNISHED SILVER EAGLE EARLY RELEASES NGC MS 70 This is the second Burnished Silver Eagle struck by the West Point Mint in 2007. #2
View Coin Burnished Silver Eagle-3 West Point Mint Mark ER United States S$1 2008 W EAGLE BURNISHED SILVER EAGLE REV OF 07 EARLY RELEASES NGC MS 70 This is the first of two burnished silver eagles struck by the West Point Mint in 2008. This coin was an error by the Mint on the reverse side with some older dies not being changed over at the proper time. To my knowledge this is the only error coin in the silver eagle set that started in 1986. When the Mint found out what happened, they changed the old dies that they had been using and now they had two different coins out on the market in 2008. The coin is rare as it has a low mintage. The 2012 Red Book acknowledges there may be 47,000 of these coins struck in error by the Mint and according to NGC(10/24/11) 7,177 have been graded so far at MS70. This silver eagle has the second lowest mintage of all silver eagle ever made (both MS and PF). This coin also has the lowest mintage of all mint state coins in the silver eagle series to date(10/24/11). Only the 1995 W in proof state has a lower mintage of 30,125. in the entire silver eagle series. I think this coin is positioned to increase in value as time goes on, it my #4 in this set. To ID this coin see the letter U on the reverse, the stars on the reverse and the mark between silver and one on the reverse. Then compare it to a regular strike of 2008 or later. See links for a better and larger photos of these three points. Do the copy and paste thing.
