The historic and internationally renowned mint is celebrating its 123rd birthday. For over a century the Perth mint has been providing its customers and the public with unprecedented quality and precision. Founded in 1899 by Sir John Forrest the very first premier of Western Australia, from its very first King George V Gold Sovereign in 1899 to its current line of bullion and proof products, its products remain popular within Australia and internationally.
The Perth Mint produces some of the most sought-after coins and bars anywhere in the world. You can take your Perth Mint products to any reputable bullion dealer and they will recognise these products and likely be selling their own. The Perth Mint has been backed by the Western Australian Government since the 1970s and is the last remaining government mint in Australia to do so.
Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke launched the now famous Australian Gold Nugget bullion Coin Series in April 1987. This bullion coin celebrates the welcome stranger gold nugget, which was the largest gold nugget ever found at the time. The Perth mint features various gold nuggets found in australia on their bullion coins until switching to the Kangaroo design in 1989 that we know of today.
