Collectible coins are sought after by numismatists and investors for their historical significance, rarity, and potential for appreciation in value. One notable type is the American Platinum Eagle, introduced in 1997, which features a varying design each year. The 1999 edition was minted at the West Point facility and includes a face value of 100 dollars, making it a popular choice among collectors. These coins are known for their high purity, being composed of 99.95% platinum, and are often considered a valuable asset in the numismatic market.
