The palladiums are one of the most attractive of the bullion couins issued by the USM. I have an example of each of the finishes for type. However being in the hole on all of them, I plan to just enjoy them and quit digging!

Does anyone know why the 25EK premium was lower this year ($550-600) at release as compared to past year's that typically were in the $900 range?

Translation: 2024 proof still has not sold out so they lowered both the mintage and premium for the 2025 coin.
If you missed the 2025 RP, check out the 2024 proofs on the mint web page.
Interesting information, I do have two 25EK RP's being shipped ... I just hope the quality is better than in 2023 were I sent back four for bad quality and then gave up.

not hot
There were a few this morning for those optimistic folks. I can't imagine wanting to buy 10 of these, even though "they do look good".

Mint reported sales of 4,012 today and none available.
Previous low was the 2021 proof at 5,170.
25 up this AM ... picked up 2
Bought 4 more this morning for a total of 14 of these 2025 key dates LOL 🙂
Wow. I'm amazed at how many are buying multiples.
I thought it was just JC haha
They are talking themselves into this low mintage/key date speculation.
All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.
Expensive bet!
Good luck!
Both 25EK & 25DA popped (single digits) this AM for a few seconds.
Appear to be selling raw $2000 on eBay and certified 70 over 2300

Nice coin. Never owned one. Still too expensive for me.

Thanks for the links, it appears to be a ($355) lower premium based on '24 ($2050) v. '25 ($1695) keying off Pd spot range for this years release.

The '24 proof and '25 RP I ordered last week arrived today. They both look great. IMO, the RP looks a lot better in hand than in pics.
The '24 DCAM proof with the Mercury design is my favorite though. I love that silver and black contrast.
Mine arrived also.
That's just glare on the neck.
