Every platinum coin listed below is sorted by premium over the current platinum spot price - the per-ounce markup each dealer charges above the market price of platinum. American Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs, Britannias, and other government-minted platinum coins appear together, ranked lowest premium first.
Platinum coins carry higher premiums than platinum bars due to lower production volumes and sovereign mint costs, but they offer stronger liquidity and wider dealer acceptance on resale. Prices update from major online dealers every hour.
Platinum coins are government-minted legal tender produced in far smaller quantities than gold or silver coins. Annual platinum coin production from all world mints combined is a fraction of gold coin output - making platinum coins inherently scarcer. The American Platinum Eagle, Canadian Platinum Maple Leaf, and Platinum Britannia are the most liquid options with the widest dealer availability.
Platinum coins carry higher premiums than platinum bars due to lower mintages, sovereign backing, and strong collector demand. The tradeoff: coins sell faster and command tighter bid/ask spreads from dealers.
If your goal is maximum platinum content per dollar, platinum bars offer lower premiums. If you value legal tender status, sovereign mint backing, and easier resale, coins are the better choice. At the 1 oz size, expect platinum coins to carry premiums 3-8% higher than bars of the same weight.
The premium above this melt value is what the comparison table sorts by - helping you find the cheapest platinum coins available from any dealer.
