2021-W Burnished American Silver Eagle 3-Coin Box Set — Type 2 | NGC MS70 FDOI First Location | John Mercanti / Michael Gaudioso / Emily Damstra Hand Signed
A landmark presentation celebrating the historic debut of the Type 2 American Silver Eagle, this 2021-W Burnished 3-Coin Box Set features three coins all graded a perfect MS70 by NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Company) with the prestigious First Day of Issue (FDOI) — First Location designation. The set is hand signed by three of the most significant figures connected to the American Silver Eagle’s legacy and redesign:
- John Mercanti — 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint and designer of the original iconic American Silver Eagle reverse (Type 1)
- Michael Gaudioso — 13th Chief Engraver of the United States Mint
- Emily Damstra — Designer of the new Type 2 American Silver Eagle reverse, introduced in 2021
The 2021 Type 2 redesign was the first change to the American Silver Eagle reverse in the coin’s 35-year history, making this set historically significant on multiple levels. Having signatures from both the original reverse designer (Mercanti) and the new reverse designer (Damstra) — alongside the sitting Chief Engraver (Gaudioso) — makes this one of the most meaningful and collectible ASE signed sets ever assembled.
All three coins are the 2021-W Burnished American Silver Eagle (Type 2), struck at the West Point Mint (W) in 99.9% fine silver with the distinctive hand-fed planchet Burnished finish, and presented in an official box.
