Grow Your Coin Collection

Endeavor Metals stocks a variety of bullion coins so collectors and investors alike can find products from their preferred mints. If you’re planning to buy platinum coins, you can’t go wrong with any of the following options.

The universally loved Platinum American Eagle coin was designed by John Mercanti, an American sculptor and the twelfth Chief of Engraver at the U.S. Mint until his retirement in 2010. The Platinum Eagle proof coins are different from the other American Eagle coins, as they are not inspired by historic U.S. coins or U.S. figural representations. They are also the only U.S. proof coin that has a yearly alternating design of differing themes every few years.

In addition to iconic American coins, Endeavor Metals is a trusted platinum coin dealer that makes it easy for you to buy platinum coins from across the globe.

The Platinum Canadian Maple Leaf was introduced in fall of 1988. And by the end of 1988, Ford Motor Company announced they were testing a new material other than platinum for their catalytic converters. This announcement posed a potential threat to platinum, as the automotive industry was responsible for nearly one-third of platinum consumption. However, it did not stop Canada’s demand for platinum, as they were ranked third in the world for platinum production in 1988. 

Australia introduced the Australian Platinum Kangaroo in 2018. Since kangaroos are Australia’s most recognized animal, it gained significant success among investors and collectors seeking to buy platinum coins. Therefore, it replaced the platypus that was originally on the country’s platinum coins.

Europe’s widely popular Austrian Platinum Philharmonic began production back in 2016. In just four years, the mintage record surpassed its original debut sales by 5,000 more. You can find this in demand platinum coin right here at Endeavor!

Invest in a Finite Asset

Platinum is famous for its rarity and brilliant beauty. But it is so much more than just a material for making luxury jewelry. There is a finite amount of platinum on Earth, and recent technological innovations have increased the demand for this industrial resource substantially.

Many knowledgeable investors buy platinum coins because the metal is used as a crucial component in various modern industries. It is especially noteworthy for its use in catalytic converters in internal combustion engines. 

Platinum is a noble metal, which means it is extremely resistant to chemical attacks. It is also incredibly resistant to corrosion, even at extremely high temperatures. To put it simply, platinum is one of the least reactive metals on the planet, and this stability makes it irreplaceable. The rising demand and diminishing supply makes platinum a very attractive investment vehicle for speculators.

Should I buy platinum coins or bars?

Both are great options. Platinum coins are very appealing because of their beauty and collectibility. However, some investors prefer platinum bars because they have a slightly lower markup. Bars are generally preferred by those who purchase platinum in larger quantities—buying one 10 oz bar is more economical than buying 10 one oz coins.

Why is platinum such a popular investment?

Besides its brilliant beauty that makes it a favorite material among jewelry enthusiasts, platinum has some unique properties. These include an extremely high melting point, corrosion resistance, malleability, ductility, and stability, making it highly demanded in various industries, with the automotive industry being the biggest.

Many investors buy platinum coins and bars because they foresee substantial growth in future demand.

What’s the difference between platinum bullion coins and platinum numismatics?

Not every platinum coin dealer stocks platinum numismatics. While they’re both coins, the value of numismatics includes other factors beyond their platinum content. Numismatics are collectible, low-population, and commemorative coins. Numismatic coin value is largely based on the coin’s market scarcity and demand, as well as its condition and corresponding grade.

Why is the price of platinum so volatile?

Out of all the precious metals, platinum’s price moves most dramatically. So, if you’re planning to buy platinum coins, you may want to watch the charts to find an ideal entry point. Platinum’s volatility is largely based on market demand.

For example, when automotive companies increase production, they’re naturally going to require more platinum. Additionally, most platinum is mined in South Africa and Russia, so geopolitical events can play a role in its availability and price.

Are United States Mint platinum bullion coins legal tender?

While they’re technically legal tender, the coins’ face values are significantly lower than their actual worth. For example, a one oz American Platinum Eagle only has a face value of $100. Don’t spend your bullion coins!

Are platinum coins taxed in the United States?

Before you buy platinum coins, you should be aware of the tax implications. All physical precious metals are classified as capital assets (collectibles) and are subject to capital gains taxes, but only if you sell them more than one year after the original purchase.

Can I add platinum coins to my precious metals IRA?

Yes, some of the most popular platinum coins are on the IRA-allowable precious metals list, including American Platinum Eagles, Australian Platinum Koalas, and Canadian Platinum Maple Leafs.
