Design

Weinman’s Mercury dime Liberty on the obverse; his 1907 American Institute of Architects medal eagle on the reverse. Proofs reverse the finishes some years.

History

Authorized in 2010, first struck in 2017 — the first U.S. palladium coin. Mintages are modest. Burnished, proof, and reverse-proof issues from West Point are the collector path; bullion strikes trade as a one-ounce palladium product.
