Alright, so I’ve been getting into Madden lately, and I was super curious about these “platinum” player values. What’s the deal? How much are they worth? It’s all a bit confusing, so I decided to do a deep dive and figure it out myself. Here’s what went down.
The Hunt Begins
First, I just hopped into the game. I poked around the menus, checked out the Auction House, and… nothing. No clear-cut “platinum value” listed anywhere. This was going to be tougher than I thought.

So I fired up good old Google and looked up some general information. I figured I needed to get my bearings straight before diving in. A few forums mentioned it, guides kind of danced around it, but no rock-solid info.
Getting My Hands Dirty
I got back into the game. decided to try and collect cards, I started playing more, grinding through challenges, and earning packs. I figured the more cards I had, the better chance I’d have of understanding how the platinum thing worked. I started to notice that some cards had a little “P” symbol on them. Could these be the platinum ones?
Auction House Action
Armed with a few of these “P” cards, I headed back to the Auction House. I wanted to see what people were selling them for. I started to notice that the value of a platinum player depended a lot on their overall rating. It wasn’t just “platinum” = “expensive.”
- Low-Rated Platinums: I saw some lower-rated platinum players going for a few thousand coins. Nothing crazy.
- Mid-Rated Platinums: The price started to climb with the better players. We’re talking tens of thousands of coins here.
- High-Rated Platinums: Woo-boy! These were the big ones. Some of the top-tier platinum players were going for hundreds of thousands, even millions, of coins.
My “Aha!” Moment
Then it clicked. The platinum value is based on how easy or hard the player is to get. The value isn’t a fixed number; it’s all relative to the player’s rating and how rare they are.
Putting it All Together
So, here’s my take on Madden platinum values, based on my little experiment:
- Platinum players are those with the “P” symbol.
- Their value is not fixed. It changes based on their overall rating and rarity.
- The Auction House is your best friend for figuring out a player’s current market value.
I still have more to learn about, but at least the mystery of the platinum values is a little less confusing now. It was a fun little investigation, and I feel like I understand the game a bit better now.
