The 2010 Proof American Platinum Eagle Coin was released from the United States Mint nearly two months ago to this day, on August 12, 2010.

The official 2010 Platinum Eagle sold out notice was declared August 23, 2010.
Heritage COINFEST Auction Features Keller Collection of Early American Coins
DALLAS, TX -- Locked in a Pennsylvania vault for 43 years, one of the most comprehensive collections of colonial and early American coins ever to reach public auction, The W. Philip Keller Collection of U.S. Colonials, is the principle highlight of the upcoming Heritage Auctions Rare U.S. Coin auction, Oct. 28-31 in conjunction with COINFEST in Stamford, CT.
Mr. Keller apparently stopped actively collecting around 1966, with intermittent purchases through the early 1970s, and stored his collection in a bank vault where it was discovered nearly a 40 years later by his surprised family after he died last year, who knew that Mr. Keller was a collector, but had no idea of the depth, or value, of his collection.
