US Mint - The United States Mint (Mint) will accept orders for the 2017 20th Anniversary American Eagle One Ounce Platinum Proof Coins (product code 17EJ) on July 6 at noon Eastern Time (ET).

The Mint made numismatic history on June 6, 1997, when it introduced its first legal tender American Eagle Platinum Proof Coin. To commemorate the 20th anniversary of production of this coin, the Mint revived the original designs depicted on the coin. The obverse (heads) features the "Portrait of Liberty" design. Liberty looks to the future in this modern interpretation of an American icon, the Statue of Liberty. Inscriptions include "LIBERTY," "2017," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM." The reverse (tails) depicts an Eagle soaring above America. Inscriptions include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," ".9995 PLATINUM 1 OZ.," and "$100."

Each coin is encapsulated and packaged in a custom-designed lacquered presentation case with a 20th Anniversary Certificate of Authenticity.

Pricing for the 2017 20th Anniversary American Eagle One Ounce Platinum Proof Coin will be based on the Mint's pricing schedule for products containing platinum. These products are priced according to the range in which they appear on the 2017 Pricing of Numismatic Gold, Commemorative Gold, and Platinum Products" table.

I've looked forward to these every year -- I can barely afford 1/4 ounce PMs, but the designs have often been among the more interesting and beautiful. To commemorate by using the same first-year design (which is among the least interesting and not extremely beautiful) is a pity.

That really is not an attractive design. Way too much face. There is something about original ASE design that is just so beautiful to me. I think it's my favorite coin design.
