About The Perth Mint:
GPO Box M924, Perth WA 6843
The multi-award winning Perth Mint is Perth’s most valuable attraction. Visitors can marvel at a traditional gold pouring demonstration, handle more than $225,000 worth of gold, shop for unique treasures, and relax in the tranquil surroundings of the Tea Garden. The Perth Mint is a world leader in the manufacture and marketing of precious metal coins, medallions and collectables. Housed in one of Australia's most elegant late-19th century heritage buildings, it is the nation's oldest operating mint and one of the oldest mints in the world still producing coins from its original premises. Every natural nugget supplied by the Perth Mint comes in a presentation case and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
The Perth Mint leads the world in the marketing of gold nuggets as increasingly valuable geological specimens. It has developed a sealed and secure presentation case specifically for gold nuggets.
Nuggets under 2 ounces, not supplied in security sealed capsules, are supplied in green leatherette cases with generic certificates of authenticity.
Nuggets between 2 ounces and 15 ounces are supplied in an elegant timber presentation box.
Larger nuggets are supplied in hardwood presentation cases in various sizes. At the top of the range are hand-crafted cases made with Western Australian hardwood and finished with sturdy brass locks and handles.
Larger presentation cases can be custom engraved either by using a brass plaque or medallion or by laser engraving into the timber.
to provide high quality refining, processing and other services to the gold industry and to develop and market globally, innovative, value-added precious metal products at a commercial rate of return acceptable to the shareholder.
Gold Corporation’s history began more than a century ago with the opening of The Perth Mint on 20 June 1899. The Mint was established as a branch of Britain’s Royal Mint to refine the increasing quantities of gold being discovered in Western Australia’s eastern goldfields and to coin it into sovereigns and half-sovereigns for the Crown.
Today the Corporation is Australia's leading precious metals refining, minting and value-adding group, providing high quality services and precious metal products to domestic and international markets.
