American Platinum Eagles were introduced by the United States Mint in 1997, 11 years after the debut of the American Eagle Series with the release of gold and silver bullion coins. The Platinum Eagles were initially offered by the US mint in 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz weights.

This continued through 2008 in both the Brilliant Uncirculated and proof collections. All fractional-ounce coins were suspended in 2009 and have not been issued since. Only 1 oz versions of the Platinum Eagle are still struck each year.

On the obverse of 1/4 oz Proof American Platinum Eagle Coins is a depiction of the Statue of Liberty. This design comes from John Mercanti of the United States Mint and was created exclusively for this series in 1997. It features a close-up visual on the Statue’s face with her stoic gaze and towering crown.

The reverse side of the 1/4 oz ProofPlatinum Eaglefeatures varying designs. In the 1/4 oz weight, the designs are limited to varying images of either the American bald eagle or symbols of American government. The most prominent design collection during this era was the Vistas of Liberty series that offered new depictions of the bald eagle flying over different parts of the country with each release from 1998 to 2002.
