About Perth Mint Gold

Perth Mint gold coins and bars are celebrated for their exceptional quality and intricate designs that reflect Australia's rich wildlife and cultural heritage.

The history of Perth mint gold

Established in 1899, the Perth Mint was founded as a branch of Britain's Royal Mint to refine gold from Western Australia's goldfields. Located in Perth, it played a crucial role in the region's gold industry, producing gold sovereigns and half-sovereigns.

• In 1970, the Perth Mint was acquired by the Government of Western Australia, and the mint expanded its operations.
• Today, the Perth Mint is internationally renowned for its high-quality bars, collector coins, and innovative designs.

Perth Mint gold coins you can buy

The Kookaburra gold coin

The Kookaburra Gold Coin series is celebrated for its annual changing designs, each depicting the iconic Australian bird. The bird, known for its iconic call which sounds more like a shrieking laugh, is known to steal food from snakes and was one of the three mascots for the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000.

• These coins are highly sought after by collectors due to their limited supply and stunning artistry.
• The obverse of the 2024 versions of The Kookaburra gold coin depicts King Charles III, the monarch of Australia.

The Kangaroo gold coin

Another flagship series is the Kangaroo Gold Coin, renowned for its depiction of Australia's most famous marsupial (a mammal group that also includes wombats and opossums). Kangaroos can hop 25 feet (7.6 metres) up to a speed of 35 mph (56kph), which is helpful, as they often live in drought-prone areas and regularly cover large distances in search of food. These coins, initially introduced as the "Australian Nugget" series, have evolved to feature the kangaroo and symbolise its strength and resilience.

• The Kangaroo Gold Coin is available in various sizes, making it accessible to a wide range of investors.
• The obverse of the 2024 design also includes a depiction of King Charles III.
• Like the Kookaburra gold coin, it is limited edition, which strengthens its demand.
