A Numismatic Landmark
Welcome to the apex of modern Silver Eagle collecting. Global Coin is honored to present the 2025-W Burnished Silver Eagle, a coin that redefines exclusivity through a powerful combination of features. While the U.S. Mint has limited the total mintage of this collector-favorite burnished issue to 90,000 coins, the specimen offered here belongs to a far more elite group. It is one of only 1,372 coins to earn the "Advance Release" pedigree. Within that small group, this coin has achieved a perfect Mint State 70 grade. But the ultimate mark of distinction places it in a class of its own: it is one of only 50 coins to be hand-signed by the 42nd U.S. Treasurer, Anna Cabral. This is a monumental opportunity to acquire a top-population modern rarity of the highest order.
Exquisite Design with a Special Finish
The coin features the universally beloved designs of the American Silver Eagle, enhanced by the unique beauty of a burnished finish. This special minting process uses burnished planchets that are tumbled with steel shot, resulting in a soft, non-reflective matte-like luster that distinguishes it from both standard bullion and proof strikes.
-
Obverse: Adolph A. Weinman’s timeless "Walking Liberty" design strides toward the sunrise. The burnished finish gives the scene a subtle, elegant sheen, highlighting the delicate folds of Liberty’s gown.
-
Reverse: The reverse features Emily Damstra’s dynamic "Eagle Landing" design. The textured finish accentuates the intricate details of the eagle’s feathers and the oak branch it carries, creating a powerful and realistic portrayal of America’s national bird.
The perfect MS70 grade ensures every detail of the design and the unique texture of the finish are perfectly preserved with exceptional eye appeal.
Why Collect This Coin?
The desirability of this coin is built on a pyramid of scarcity. It begins with the sought-after Burnished Silver Eagle from the West Point Mint.

The final, crowning feature is the Anna Cabral signature, creating a microscopic population of just 50 coins. Owning this coin means owning a verifiable "top pop" treasure that combines a special finish, an elite pedigree, a perfect grade, and a prestigious signature.
Detailed Overview
Introduction to the Coin
The Burnished American Silver Eagle, first introduced in 2006, has always been a favorite among serious collectors. Produced specifically for the collector market at the West Point Mint and bearing the "W" mint mark, its unique finish and lower mintages set it apart. The 2025 edition continues this tradition of excellence. This specific coin represents the most exclusive echelon of that release, curated for its early availability and endorsed by a former U.S. Treasurer.
Artistic and Design Elements
The "Walking Liberty" obverse is a hallmark of American coinage, symbolizing freedom and hope. The "Eagle Landing" reverse adds a modern, realistic dynamism to the series. The true artistic element of this specific coin is its finish. Unlike the brilliant shine of a bullion coin or the stark cameo contrast of a proof, the burnished finish offers a sophisticated, satin-like surface that absorbs light, allowing the collector to appreciate the design's nuances without reflective glare.
Unique Collectible Features
This coin’s elite status is undeniable. The Burnished Finish makes it a special collector's issue. The Advance Release Pedigree places it among the first and best strikes. The Perfect MS70 Grade certifies its flawless quality. The ultimate feature is the Anna Cabral Signature, which reduces the population for this specific coin to a mere 50 examples. This is not just a rare coin; it is an authenticated, low-population treasure with a direct link to the United States Treasury.
Packaging and Presentation
The coin is sonically sealed in a durable, high-security holder from a top-tier grading service (PCGS or NGC). The holder features a special label that verifies the MS70 grade, the "Advance Release" pedigree, and prominently displays the authentic, hand-signed autograph of former U.S. Treasurer Anna Cabral. This professional packaging ensures the coin remains a secure and stable tangible asset, perfect for display in a world-class collection.
