The American Palladium Eagle Coin debuted from the United States Mint in 2017 as a bullion coin. The United States Mint did not offer a proof version of the coin during the first year of availability, making these 2018 Proof American Palladium Eagles the first-ever issue of the collectible version of the coin.
All 2018-W 1 oz Proof American Palladium Eagle Coins are available to purchase here today with a protective plastic slab. The NGC issues a PF70 certification to coins with full, original mint luster and no detracting flaws of any kind on the surface area or design elements of the coin.
American Palladium Eagle coins feature two designs from Adolph A. Weinman. The Liberty design debuted in 1916 on the Mercury Dime, as it was popularly known. The reverse includes a design from the 1907 American Institute of Architects Gold Medal reserve.
On the obverse of the 2018-W 1 oz Proof American Palladium Eagle Coin, you’ll find Weinman’s depiction of Winged Liberty. This left-profile portrait of Liberty appeared on the Winged Liberty Dime from 1916 to 1945 and features Liberty wearing a Phrygian cap on her head. The wings on the cap made Liberty look like the Roman messenger god Mercury.
The reverse of 2018 Proof American Palladium Eagle Coin includes the image of an American bald eagle standing on a cliff edge as it clutches a branch emerging from the rock face. This side of the coin includes the nation of issue, face value, weight, purity, and metal content. All American Palladium Eagle proof coins are issued by the West Point Mint with a “W” mint mark on the obverse.
