Authorized by Congress in 1996 and first minted in 1997, American Eagle Platinum Bullion Coins are the first and only official investment-grade platinum coins from the United States Mint. They're .9995 fine platinum, virtually the finest platinum available.
American Eagle Platinum coins are also beautifully designed. The obverse is graced with a portrait of the Statue of Liberty, while the reverse pictures a bald eagle soaring across a setting sun.
Government guarantee
American Eagle Platinum coins are the world's only platinum coins whose weight, content and purity are guaranteed by the United States Government. So like the dollar, American Eagles are welcome in major investment markets worldwide. You can even include them in an Individual Retirement Account (IRA).
Portfolio diversification
Many investment experts believe that adding platinum to your portfolio may improve its performance. That's because the forces that determine platinum's price usually differ from, and in many cases counter, the forces that determine the price of many financial assets. Investment advisors often suggest that this relationship may help to reduce portfolio volatility. Platinum Eagles are the easy, convenient and affordable way to add platinum to your portfolio.
Easy to buy and sell
One measure of an investment is liquidity: How easily can it be converted to cash? Platinum Eagles, with ttheir unique United States Government backing, can be sold for cash at coin and precious metals dealers worldwide. They're also legal tender. Their face values are largely symbolic, because platinum's market price - which is reported in the market pages and websites of major newspapers - has historically been higher.
