Platinum Eagle Uncirculated Coins Sold Out
All 2008-W American Eagle Platinum Uncirculated coins have been sold, according to the United States Mint online store.
The one ounce version was the final size remaining after the 1/2, 1/4, 1/10 and 4-coin set sold out earlier -- the 1/2 ounce platinum just last week. The one ounce moved to the "product is not available" category Wednesday morning.
Collectors have watched the series closely since the Mint reduced its coin prices on November 13 and also announced the elimination of several hundred coins from its 2009 numismatic portfolio, including all options of the American Eagle Platinum Uncirculated Coins.
