The Platinum Eagle Coin has been released along with the Gold Eagle and Silver Eagle fairly consistently since 1997. There were no platinum eagle release from 2009-2013 and none in 2015, but every year other than that has had at least 6,000 pieces minted. More recently, the mintage numbers have climbed up to about 40,000 pieces per year. There also used to be fractional Platinum Eagles but those were discontinued by the US Mint after 2008.

The face value of this platinum coin is $100 and that is minted at the bottom of the coin, denoting the backing of the US Government.
