A historical tour in palladium
The American Eagle Palladium coin program began in 2017 with the bullion version, followed by the proof (2018) and reverse proof (2019) editions. Its limited mintage, along with the rarity of palladium, has made each release highly sought-after in the world of coin collecting.
The 2025 edition is no exception: it represents a unique blend of classic artistry, technical innovation, and numismatic prestige. Each coin is presented encapsulated in a black velvet case with a satin lining, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, reinforcing its status as an essential collector's item.
