Notification of American Eagle Platinum Coin Price Increases

The rise in the price of platinum per ounce requires that the United States Mint raise the prices on its 2007 American Eagle Platinum Proof and Uncirculated Coins. Pursuant to the authority that 31 U.S.C. 5112(k) grants the Secretary of the Treasury to mint and issue platinum coins, the United States Mint mints and issues American Eagle Platinum Proof and Uncirculated Coins in four denominations--one ounce, one-half ounce, one-quarter ounce, one-tenth ounce, and a four-coin set which contains one coin of each denomination.
