Collectible coins are often categorized by type, history, rarity, and metal composition. The United States Mint produces a variety of coins, including the American Platinum Eagle, which was first issued in 1997. The Platinum Eagle series features a detailed design that changes annually, showcasing the artistry and value of platinum as a precious metal. Collectors often seek specific years like 1997 due to lower mintage figures or unique design elements. Such coins are valued for both their numismatic interest and their intrinsic metal value.
