Are these coins made of real platinum? I mean not plated. If yes, how much will worth?   10-10-2004, 02:13 PM   #2 (permalink) National dealer Numismatist   Join Date: Dec 2003 Posts: 3,387 They are plated with very little platinum.   10-10-2004, 02:14 PM   #3 (permalink) GDJMSP Numismatist     Join Date: Nov 2002 Location: PA Posts: 23,515 No they are not made of platinum - they are plated. And the value of the platinum ( because it is so thin ) is worth less than the face value of the coin. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   10-10-2004, 02:49 PM   #4 (permalink) goossen Senior Member     Join Date: Oct 2004 Location: Asuncion, Paraguay Posts: 370 My Mood: Thanks!
