American Platinum Eagle
First struck in 1997 and carrying the highest face value of any U.S. coin ($100). The back — an eagle in flight — has stayed the same since 2018; the front changes every year as part of a themed series, most recently "Charters of Freedom."

Added to the American Eagle program in 2017, reviving two historic Adolph Weinman designs: the "Winged Liberty" portrait from the 1916 Mercury dime on the front, and an eagle grasping a branch from a 1907 American Institute of Architects medal on the back.

An annual, high-relief gold coin series started in 2015, reinterpreting "Liberty" with a new design each year instead of a fixed front. The 2025 issue depicts a sunflower and bee on the front and a swirling eagle on the back.
