Are you looking to own a half-ounce platinum eagle from the first year of mintage? Well, look no further than this 1997 $50 Platinum Eagle. It has been graded MS70 by the Professional Coin Grading Service. In 1997 the U.S Mint produced only 20,500 half ounce pieces and only 3 coins have been graded perfect 70 by NGC that are hand signed by the coin's designer. Early year platinum can be hard to come by in perfect strikes and fractional platinum is sought after by investors and collectors across the world because they are no longer in production by the U.S Mint. Furthermore, this piece is hand signed by the designer of the Platinum American Eagle and the U.S Mint’s 12th Chief Engraver, John Mercanti. Hand signed labels by Mercanti have become highly sought after by collectors and investors alike.

If you have been looking to add a truly exceptional piece to your collection, look no further than this hard-to-find First Strike Silver Eagle. First strike coins are pieces that are received by a grading service from the mint within 30 days of production by the Mint.

This leads us to believe the grading service must have received a postmarked and sealed box that was never opened. This is a truly exceptional piece and is a key date for any collection. Only 21 coins exist in the PCGS population that are First Strike.
