The MintDirect? Premier designation applies to coins received in the first 30 days of release from the mint. APMEX individually seals each MintDirect? Premier coin to ensure the authenticity after being removed directly from the mint packaging.
In partnership with PCGS, 2022 MintDirect? Premier Gold Pandas now have the added benefit of qualifying for the sought-after PCGS FirstStrike? designation if submitted for grading in sealed packaging, bringing additional value to this popular program.
APMEX has partnered with PCGS, one of the most trusted names in numismatics, to further enhance the MintDirect? Premier program. This partnership with PCGS allows MintDirect? Premier with PCGS FirstStrike? 2022 Gold Pandas in their sealed packaging to remain eligible for the FirstStrike? designation if submitted to PCGS for grading long after new FirstStrike?-eligible coins are typically off the market.
Each 2022 30 gram Gold Panda is placed in a non-reactive plastic polymer authentication card to protect your coin
