The 2019-W Reverse Proof Palladium Eagle is a landmark release in the American Eagle Palladium series, combining exceptional purity, artistry, and limited mintage appeal. As the second numismatic version of the Palladium Eagle, it features a stunning reverse proof finish, where the coin's design elements are mirrored and the fields are frosted--flipping the contrast of traditional proof coins. Struck at the West Point Mint and bearing the "W" mintmark, this issue is prized by collectors for its beauty, scarcity, and investment-grade palladium content.
Collector Insight:
The 2019-W Reverse Proof is a standout in the Palladium Eagle series. With a limited mintage of just 30,000 coins, it appeals to both numismatists and bullion investors seeking scarce, high-purity palladium coins backed by the U.S. government. Its unique reverse proof finish distinguishes it from both the standard BU (2017) and proof (2018) issues, making it a cornerstone for completing a Palladium Eagle set.
