Palladium Numismatics

Low-Population Palladium Numismatic Coins for Sale

America is one of the world’s top palladium producers, and our palladium coin features the iconic American Eagle design. We stock Palladium American Eagle numismatic coins for sale from various dates and with the highest possible grading: MS70.

The American Eagle Palladium Bullion Coin Act of 2010 authorized the minting of Palladium American Eagles. When the coin was finally released in 2017, all 15,000 sold out within five minutes! Additionally, in 2018, sales had to be suspended the day they hit the market. Now, we make it possible for you to own these extremely rare coins.

The 2019 Palladium American Eagle is a reverse-proof coin, and the 2020 Palladium American Eagles are available as an uncirculated finish. One of the available palladium numismatic coins for sale is signed by Don Everhart: a former U.S. Mint lead sculptor and engraver from 2004 to 2017. He has designed and sculpted numerous coins over the years, earning his place as a well-respected force in the precious metals world. 

Each 1 oz American Eagle bullion coin has a different face value. The Palladium American Eagle has a face value of $25. Of course, its actual value is significantly higher due to its palladium content, with rarity and condition also playing a role.

Famous Numismatic Palladium Coins

Compared to gold and silver numismatics, there are very limited options for palladium numismatic coins for sale, as only a small handful have been made available to the public. Palladium coins produced by Russia, Portugal, China, and Australia are no longer being minted, so naturally those rare numismatic coins are extremely scarce and priced accordingly. As of 2024, the only palladium coins still in production are American Palladium Eagles and Canadian Palladium Maple Leafs.

Now is the time to get your hands on the palladium coins that are still attainable! History has shown that palladium coins skyrocket in value when production halts. You never know when a coin may have its last run or be minted in lower quantities, making numismatic coins for sale even more difficult to find.

For example, American Palladium Eagles have been minted in increasingly fewer quantities since 2021, when 8,700 were minted. In 2022, there were 7,500, and in 2023, only 6,000. While that trend may appear to show a lack of interest from the general public, enthusiastic collectors are more than willing to pay top dollar to secure elusive pieces.

Here’s a look at the most desirable palladium numismatics available today.

2017 American Palladium Eagles

2017 was this iconic coin’s first year of production. As you might expect, first-year American Palladium Eagles are highly coveted, especially those in pristine condition. There are only 164 NGC-graded perfect proof 70 of these numismatic coins for sale, and we’re proud to have one of them available!

Why Buy Rare Numismatic Coins?

Palladium bullion is a popular investment vehicle because it is a finite resource used in the automotive, electronic, and jewelry industries, among others. However, these numismatic coins for sale have value beyond their palladium content. If your plan is simply to invest in the metal, we recommend purchasing palladium bullion coins or bars.

Numismatic coins are unique because a significant portion of their value is derived from their scarcity, condition, and grade. Numismatics are graded according to the Sheldon Grading Scale, which runs from 1-70. A “perfect” MS70 coin means the coin has no marks when examined with a magnifier or eye loupe. The luster, strike, and color are impeccable. MS69 and MS68 coins are still close to exceptional condition, but you may notice light, small marks upon close inspection.

Each of these numismatic coins for sale would make an outstanding addition to any coin collection and investment portfolio. There are only so many available in circulation. As they become increasingly scarce and highly sought after by fervent collectors, the price naturally rises.

Important Factors to Consider Before Buying Palladium Numismatic Coins for Sale

As with any investment, it’s important to do your due diligence before moving forward. Unfortunately, many numismatic coins for sale aren’t priced fairly or graded by reputable organizations, and some are outright counterfeits. Here’s what you need to know to proceed with confidence.

• First and foremost, only purchase numismatics from a trusted dealer. This simple step will eliminate virtually all risk.

• Take the time to learn how to determine a numismatic coin’s value. That way, you’ll be able to make an informed decision and can differentiate a good buy from a bad one.

• Only purchase coins that have been graded by established third-party grading services—the NGC or PCGS— according to the Sheldon Coin Grading Scale. Learn more here: A Guide to Numismatic Coin Grading. 

How to Start a Numismatic Palladium Coin Collection

Starting a coin collection is as easy as choosing numismatic coins for sale and buying them. That said, some collectors prefer to seek rare numismatic coins with specific features. 

For example, you may wish to own American Palladium Eagle sets starting from 2017 up to the current year. Or, you could try to track down every palladium coin that has ever been released. You could even try to find coins with minting errors.

FAQs: Palladium Numismatics

How do you determine the prices of your palladium numismatic coins for sale?

All our rare numismatic coins are priced according to specific grades assigned by long-established third-party grading services: the PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service) and the NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Company). Each coin is meticulously examined by unbiased experts to ensure an accurate grade that determines the coin’s exact value.

Learn more about how to find a coin’s value.

What factors influence a coin’s grade and value?

Numismatics are evaluated based on the Sheldon Coin Grading Scale, an established assessment scale that has been used since 1949. The scale runs from 1-70, with a higher number signifying better condition, and in turn, a higher value.

For example, as you browse numismatic coins for sale, you might see an MS70 grade. That means the coin is in perfect “mint state” condition.

The scale takes multiple factors into account, such as the coin’s strike, luster, coloration, surface preservation, and overall eye appeal.

How do I know a coin has been graded by the PCGS or NGC?

Each coin comes packaged in a protective case with a label that shows information about the coin, including which service graded it, the grade it received, and other pertinent details. The labels on our rare numismatic coins also have unique barcodes to ensure traceability.

Besides working with established third-party services, you can feel confident buying our numismatic coins for sale because Endeavor Metals is a reputable dealer with over 50 years of in-house experience. We belong to the American Numismatic Association and have an A+ accredited grade on the Better Business Bureau and a 4.9 Google star rating.

What are the most popular palladium numismatics?

Every collector has their own personal favorites, but the 2017 American Palladium Eagle is one of the most prestigious palladium coins you can own. This was the first year the coin was minted, and only 15,000 were produced. All 15,000 of them were sold in under five minutes!

What does it mean to build sets?

Many collectors seek out numismatic coins for sale that correspond to cohesive sets. For example, you could collect all the American Palladium Eagles in order from 2017 up until the current year. Or, you could build a set of gold, silver, platinum, and palladium American Eagles from one specific year.

This way of collecting rare numismatic coins adds a fun aspect to the hobby, but it can be quite profitable, too. If you ever decide to sell your coins, there’s a high chance that you’ll be able to sell a complete set for more than the combined value of each individual coin.

Should I buy bullion coins or numismatics?

If you want to own rare collectibles, our numismatic coins for sale are the best choice. If you just want to add precious metals to your portfolio, bullion palladium coins or palladium bars allow you to buy the metal as close to its spot price as possible. Both have their own unique benefits. If you’re not sure which approach is right for you, contact us for a free consultation.

Q: Why are palladium numismatic coins harder to find than gold or silver rarities?

A: Palladium numismatics are scarcer because only two mints, the U.S. Mint and the Royal Canadian Mint, currently produce them, and annual mintages have shrunk each year since 2021. Several countries that once issued palladium coins, including Russia, Portugal, China, and Australia, have discontinued production entirely, limiting the supply available to collectors and investors.

Q: What sets the American Palladium Eagle apart from other palladium coin programs?

A: The American Palladium Eagle features Adolph Weinman's Winged Liberty design, first authorized under the American Eagle Palladium Bullion Coin Act of 2010 and released in 2017. It carries a $25 face value, .9995 purity, and has sold out or been suspended in past release years, making certified examples a distinct option compared to programs like the Canadian Palladium Maple Leaf.

Q: How does palladium's industrial use affect its appeal as a numismatic investment?

A: Palladium is consumed heavily by the automotive, electronics, and jewelry industries, which keeps physical supply tight and supports long-term demand. This industrial draw, combined with limited annual coin mintages, gives certified palladium numismatics upside potential beyond typical bullion price movements, appealing to investors seeking a tangible asset with scarcity built in.

Q: What should collectors know about reverse-proof and uncirculated palladium finishes?

A: Certain release years feature distinct finishes, such as the 2019 reverse-proof Palladium American Eagle and the 2020 uncirculated version. These finish types affect a coin's visual characteristics and can influence collector demand, so it helps to understand which finish and mint year you're targeting before adding a piece to your portfolio.

Q: How can investors verify a palladium numismatic coin is genuine before purchasing?

A: Confirm the coin has been certified by a reputable third-party grading service such as PCGS or NGC, since these organizations authenticate and grade each piece according to the Sheldon Scale. Working with an established dealer with decades of industry experience further reduces the risk of counterfeit or misrepresented coins entering a portfolio.
