The burnished silver eagles have a unique look to them. Burnished coins have a matte-like finish and they appear less shiny.
Proof coins are essentially coins that have more detail. They are minted on special planchets and it takes longer to produce them. Each proof coin originally comes in a US Mint issued velvet box and a certificate of authorization (COA).
The reverse proof silver eagles are special edition coins that were minted for the 25th anniversary of the silver eagle series. These coins were only sold as part of a five coin set that contained all the different silver eagles of 2011. Each coin has a brilliant mirror-like appearance.
