Each coin comes in its original U.S. Mint packaging with a presentation box and Certificate of Authenticity.
Collector Insight:
This inaugural proof release is highly sought after for its artistic legacy and limited mintage. With only 15,000 coins struck, it sold out quickly upon release, driving strong demand in both investment and numismatic circles. The coin's use of classic Weinman imagery--combined with its historic significance as the U.S. Mint's first proof palladium offeringmakes it a standout in any modern bullion or proof collection. Collectors value its status, rarity, and aesthetic, while investors appreciate its pure palladium content and government backing.
