Among the four coins that make up the American Eagle Series from the United States Mint, the American Platinum Eagle is arguably the most intriguing. While all of the coins are available in bullion and proof versions, it is the design elements of the proof version in the Platinum Eagle Series that is worthy of note.
While these American Platinum Eagle bullion coins have the same obverse and reverse designs each year, the reverse side of Proof Platinum Eagles is changed each year to feature a new design element focusing on either Liberty or the bald eagle. This makes the Platinum Eagle the only bullion coin from the United States Mint to alternate designs.
On the obverse of these 2018 1 oz American Platinum Eagle Coins you’ll find the image of Liberty. This effigy of Liberty is based upon the Statue of Liberty and focuses solely on her face. The solemn appearance of Liberty captured here was created by John Mercanti, former Chief Engraver of the United States Mint from 2006 until his retirement in 2010.
