Precious Metals Gift Guide for Platinum and Palladium Investors
We have a lot of really cool items for sale here at Provident Metals. Here are some of our top-selling products to consider when shopping for platinum and palladium investors.
Though gold has been a more popular investment historically, platinum and palladium are becoming popular precious metal investments as well. Both are considerably more scarce in the Earth’s crust than gold, and have physical properties that make them crucial to production of certain industrial goods. As a result, both metals are typically more resilient during economic downturns than gold and silver, making them strong assets for a long-term holding style of investment.
Like most other precious metals, platinum and palladium bullion can be purchased as coinage and small bars. These assets make excellent gifts for precious metal investors of all types and experience levels.
Here are some of the top platinum and palladium bullion gifts for the investing enthusiast on your list.
Based on the better-known Silver Kangaroo coin, this platinum equivalent features the familiar kangaroo design on the reverse with a right-facing side profile of Her Majesty Elizabeth II on the obverse. The coin, produced by the Perth Mint, is denominated as $100 and contains exactly one ounce of fine platinum. Because of the international popularity of the silver version, this coin is great for those who like a mix of numismatic and bullion value.
Shop nowOne of Britain's most iconic platinum coins, the Isle of Man Platinum Noble features a reverse image of a viking longship. This image is singularly fitting for a coin commemorating the Isle of Man, which has yielded runic inscriptions and viking grave sites in mass numbers. On the obverse, a depiction of a young Elizabeth II can be seen. This coin was the first British platinum coin minted almost exclusively for precious metal investors. If you're buying for a serious investor, this coin will make a valuable and historically significant addition to his or her portfolio.
Shop nowThe Australian Platinum Koala coin is interesting in that its reverse design changes annually, yielding considerable variety between dates. The one commonality is that the subject of the design is always the koala bear, an animal associated worldwide with the continent of Australia. The obverse consistently features a right-facing profile of Her Majesty. This 1 oz coin is a good buy for the platinum investor who also likes to balance investments with numismatic value, as the yearly artwork variation gives these coins a unique type of collector value.
Shop nowThough some precious metal investors find coins to be the best store of value, others prefer to stick to simple bars for their investment bullion. For these investors, a 1 oz platinum bar is a perfect present for any occasion. Platinum bars in this product listing are randomized, introducing an element of chance and surprise into the design you will receive.
Shop nowDenominated as a $50 coin, the Canadian Palladium Maple Leaf follows a design that has proven to be one of the most popular in the world for precious metal investment coins.

The coin contains one ounce of .9995 fine palladium, making it one of the most accessible palladium investment assets on the market and an ideal gift for the precious metal investor.
Shop nowAs with platinum, some palladium investors prefer to keep their holdings in the form of bars as opposed to coins.
