The American Palladium Eagle expands the American Eagle Series across four precious metals now and falls in line with the design theme of the entire program. Each metal issue in the series has an image of Liberty on the obverse and the bald eagle on the reverse. For the 2017 American Palladium Eagle, Adolph A. Weinman again makes a contribution to this program.

On the obverse of the American Palladium Eagle is Weinman’s 1916 depiction of Winged Liberty. Better known to circulation coin collectors as the Mercury Dime design, it is a left-profile portrait of Liberty wearing a winged Phrygian cap. Inscriptions on the coin’s obverse include “Liberty,” “In God We Trust,” “2017,” and an interlocking “AW” for Weinman’s initials.

The reverse of the 2017 1 oz American Palladium Eagle Coin features a 1907 design from Weinman. Created for the high-relief version of his American Institute of Architects medal, it captures the bald eagle with wings arched back as it stands on a rock cliff clutching a branch in its talon. Inscriptions on this side read “United States of America,” “$25,” and “E Pluribus Unum.”

All American Palladium Eagle coins are produced by the United States Mint at the Philadelphia Mint location, though no mint marks are featured on bullion coins from the US Mint.
