The year 2008 was one that most people will remember. The United States was facing tumultuous economic times. The global financial crisis created a wave interest in gold bullion as investors sought safe-haven assets. This spike also caused Gold Eagle bullion and collector coin sales to dramatically increase. For example, during the first six months of the year, 2008 Gold Eagle bullion coins sold around the typical levels of the previous years. Starting after mid-year, sales increased exponentially which forced the U.S Mint to suspend gold bullion coin sales in August. Sales resumed two weeks later on a rationed basis, which limited the number of coins that could be ordered by authorized dealers. Despite the suspension and rationing, sales had exceeded 800,000 cumulative ounces by the year's end. The tenth-ounce gold eagle represented about 4% of overall sales with just over 300,000 pieces minted and less than 1% of pieces receiving the perfect grade of 70 by NGC.

2008 marked the final year of production for the fractional denominations in the Burnished Gold Eagle series. The mint produced a total of 8,883 quarter-ounce pieces, which at the time was the lowest mintage for any Gold Eagle. Burnished Gold American Eagles feature a “W” mintmark, which represents U.S Mint at West Point, NY. This is widely considered as one of the most unique gold coins the U.S. Mint has ever produced. The coins are minted using a specialized process to create a burnished finish, each coin is certified MS70/SP70. The commonly used word “burnished” comes from the thoroughly polished coin blanks that are individually hand-fed into coining presses. Although similar in appearance to American Eagle Bullion Coins, these uncirculated/burnished coins are distinguished by the presence of a mintmark and the use of burnished blanks which produce more of a matte finish. The strike is sharp, and the fields are flawless.
