Platinum Shield in Final Fantasy XII.

A shield made from sturdy platinum. The platinum used to make the shield is specially processed to reduce its weight, thus making the shield much easier to use. The price it commands is befitting of its properties, but many people opt to purchase this very popular shield based on the concept that it would cost more to replace cheaper variations each time they break.

Platinum Shield (プラチナシールド, Purachina Shīrudo?), also known as Opal Shield and Platina Shield, is a recurring shield in the Final Fantasy series.
