US Mint Will Not Issue 2012 Platinum Eagle Bullion Coins | Coin Update
For the fourth consecutive year, the United States Mint will not
offer American Platinum Eagles in bullion format. As such, the only 2012
Platinum Eagle produced and issued will be the proof version struck for
collectors.
Within his opening letter to the US Mint's 2011 Annual Report, Deputy
Directory Richard A. Peterson had raised the possibility of bringing
back the platinum bullion offering in 2012. He stated, "We are
evaluating, in conjunction with our authorized purchaser distribution
channel, the optimum way to bring back American Eagle Platinum Bullion
Coins in 2012." However, it appears that the Mint has decided to forgo
the offering for another year.
