American Silver Eagle coins are available in three popular versions each year from the United States Mint. Without a doubt, the bullion Silver Eagle is the most popular as it appeals to serious investors and casual collectors alike.

Burnished American Silver Eagle coins were first introduced in 2006 on the 20th anniversary celebration of the Silver Eagle program. The coins remain a standard striking from the US Mint in this series, but they were subject to cessation in 2009 and 2010. The intense demand for silver bullion during the Great Recession pressed the US Mint into allocating all of its silver bullion blanks to the bullion American Silver Eagle, with the Proof Silver Eagle also sidelined in 2009.
To date, the second-year issue of the Burnished Silver Eagle remains the highest mintage year for the coins. With 621,333 coins struck that year, the 2014 Burnished Silver Eagles come in with a mintage figure nearly one-third of that level. In 2014, the United States Mint produced just 253,169 of the burnished coins in this collection.
All 2014-W 1 oz Burnished American Silver Eagle Coins listed here are considered perfect specimens by the PCGS. Coins that earn the Mint State 70 certification have full, original mint luster and lack all detracting flaws on the surface areas of the design.
The obverse of the Burnished American Silver Eagle coin features the image of Walking Liberty. One of the greatest American coin designs ever, this image captures Liberty as she walks toward a setting sun on the horizon. Created in 1916 by Adolph A. Weinman, it originally appeared on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar Coin from 1916 to 1947.
On the reverse of the 2014-W 1 oz Burnished American Silver Eagle is the heraldic eagle of the United States. First designed in 1794 on original American coins from the Philadelphia Mint, this is the latest update of the design. Completed in 1986 by John Mercanti, it depicts the American bald eagle set behind the national shield.
