AMS To Distribute Exclusive 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle Proofs In North America

Asset Marketing Services (AMS), a leading direct-to-consumer retailer of collectible coins, has recently unveiled the 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle Proofs, minted by Australia's Perth Mint. This new collection features an intricate design by John Mercanti, the former 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint. AMS, known for its high-quality collectibles since 1984, maintains exclusive distribution rights in the U.S. for these coins, marking a continued partnership with sovereign World Mints that began in 2014 with the Wedge-Tailed Eagles series.

The collaboration between Mercanti and the Perth Mint has led to one of the most successful precious metal coin programs in North America, generating nearly $100 million in sales. The latest proofs showcase a Wedge-Tailed Eagle in flight, set against stylized sun rays, with the obverse featuring the first definitive portrait of King Charles III for Australia. These coins are notable for being the first in the series to include King Charles III's effigy.

Unique aspects of these proofs include a miniature 2014 Wedge-Tailed Eagle design on the obverse, commemorating the first design of the series, and a "P125" mint mark celebrating the Perth Mint's 125th anniversary. Each coin is graded by NGC as flawless Proof-70 Ultra Cameo and comes encapsulated with an Australian Flag label signed by Mercanti himself. Additionally, this year introduces a one-ounce Silver Wedge-Tailed Eagle with a pure gold gilded design.

Ted Smetana, Chief Commercial Officer Merchandising at AMS, expressed enthusiasm about offering these Mercanti-designed proofs, highlighting AMS's commitment to distributing world-class precious metal coins in the U.S. market. With the legacy of the series and the quality of these proofs, a complete sellout is anticipated.

AMS holds North American exclusivity for all 2024 Wedge-Tailed Eagle coins produced by the Perth Mint. Collectors interested in these special 10th Anniversary issues can find more information and view available products at www.govmint.com/2024-australian-wedge-tailed-eagle-proof-coins.
