Product Description

These 2016 1 oz Platinum American Eagle Bullion Coins are brand new, brilliant uncirculated coins fresh from the U.S. Mint. As America's official platinum bullion coin, American Eagle Platinum Bullion Coins give investors an easy way to take advantage of platinum as a precious metal investment. Authorized by Congress in 1996 and first issued in 1997, they are the first and only official investment-grade platinum coins from the United States Government. The American Eagle Platinum is the only platinum bullion coin whose weight, content and .9995 purity are guaranteed by the United States Government.



The American Platinum Eagle bullion coin can be appreciated for its patriotic beauty as well as its composition. The obverse design features the face of the Statue of Liberty below the word "Liberty," with the year 2016 and "In God We Trust" to the right-hand side. "E Pluribus Unum" is engraved along Liberty's raised arm. The reverse is an iconic American eagle soaring over the sunrise with "United States of America" inscribed above. Also engraved is the coin's weight, purity and $100 face value.

All American Eagles are legal tender coins, with their face value imprinted in U.S. dollars. Although their face value is largely symbolic, it provides proof of their authenticity as official U.S. coinage. The one-ounce platinum coin displays the highest face value ($100) ever to appear on a U.S. coin. Because the Platinum American Eagle bullion coin has a face value and is considered a legal-tender bullion coin with its weight, content, and purity guaranteed by the United States government, this coin is eligible to be held in individual retirement accounts (IRAs).
