Composed of 99.95% pure platinum, the coin showcases the exceptional quality that has made the Platinum Eagle series highly sought after by collectors and investors alike. The coin has a diameter of 16.5 mm and features a reeded edge, enhancing its tactile appeal while also serving to deter counterfeiting. Designed by renowned engravers John M. Mercanti and Thomas D. Rogers, this coin not only represents a substantial denomination but also embodies the rich artistry associated with American coinage.
