The United States Congress authorized the production of a Palladium Eagle coin back in 2010, but the demands on the mint for gold and silver versions of the American Eagles at the time made it difficult to integrate a new coin into the collection. Adding to the issue was the lack of demand for palladium at the time. By 2017 though, the US Mint and the market were ready for a Palladium Eagle to debut.

All of these 2018-W 1 oz Proof American Palladium Eagle Coins are available to you in perfect condition according to the PCGS. Coins with a PR70 certification feature full, original mint luster with no detracting flaws visible anywhere on the coins. The included First Strike label indicates the coins were received from the US Mint by the PCGS for certification within the initial 30-day window following the US Mint’s official release of the coins.

The obverse of 2018 Proof American Palladium Eagle Coins includes the left-profile portrait of Liberty known as Winged Liberty. In this figure, she is depicted wearing a Phrygian cap with wings. This was designed in 1916 by Adolph A. Weinman during an art competition to replace existing American coin designs, eventually finding its way onto the US dime.

On the reverse of 2018-W 1 oz Proof American Palladium Eagle Coins, you’ll find an American bald eagle. The bald eagle depicted here sits on the edge of a rock cliff and clutches a branch in its talons.
