Platinum Eagles back at the US Mint
 
The US Mint is finally listing Platinum Eagles in proof and uncirc versions again. They have been gone for quite a while. Fractionals available also.

1 oz proof $1324.95
1 oz uncirc $1214.95

I was kind of hoping that they would bring back the reverse proofs also, but I don't see them listed.

so many people have paid way over these new mint prices lol.... Ebayers are going nuts on the 2008's thinking they are going to be rare

Bullion direct was sub 1100 for 1oz maples.... Mint prices are actually not too bad considering everyone is out. However, this means that dealers like Apmex will be getting their hands back on uncirculated plat too. I will wait for that...

apmex gets a discount from the mint's prices?

Good thing I didnt buy a 2008 plat like I was thinking about. (Of course I was only going to buy the 1/10, but still.

Looks like the $200 premium is holding firm...but the price is starting to go down. http://www.mjpm.com/platinum.cfm

I was thinking about getting a 1/4 proof and unc.
The 1/4 unc seems to be the best deal...$20 more then a 1/4 unc gold eagle.
Here's the last info from the US Mint.
