Question - 2008 Gold Buffalo Celebration Coin

I was on the Mint website looking at this coin, and there is no mention of the finish - proof, unc, burnished - no mention.

Has anyone ordered this coin, and does anyone know if there is anything different about the finish? Are these basic circulation uncs?

Thanks.

    I "HAVE" one but sent it to PCGS in a Mint Sealed box for grading and the "Celebration" labeling so I haven't actually seen it but as I understand it the coin is just the normal business strike version.

    I just got mine today. They're regular uncs. In fact, they're still sealed in the mint sheet:

    I'm planning on returning all of them (unless gold spikes up 10% in the next couple of weeks) and was thinking about "messing" with one to see how soft gold really is... image
