FIMI Platinum

Gold certification always seems to be the most commonly achieved status as the qualification is rather low.

Platinum certification, on the other hand, requires higher sales to achieve status.  This certification is possible but with stronger proof by the artist and their album sales.

In this post, I am highlighting artists and album sales with 70,000 units or more.  This post is according to FIMI (Federazione Industria Musicale Italiana - Italian Music Industry Federation).

Note - Italian artists with 70,000 or more in sales are not listed due to the language barrier and inability to translate.
