The humpback whale is one of the largest animals on Earth today, and fortunately for its body, it doesn’t have to walk on land. The humpback whale resides in both polar waters and tropical waters around the globe with an estimated population around 80,000. Humpback whales are the latest creatures to showcase on platinum coins from the Perth Mint. Today, 2019 1/3 oz Platinum Australian Humpback Whale Coins are available to you online at Silver.com.

Coin Highlights:

  • Available to ship inside of protective acrylic tubes!
  • Mintage limited to 25,000 coins only!
  • Consists of One-Third Troy ounce of .9995 fine platinum in BU condition.
  • The face value of $30 (AUD) is fully backed by the Australian government.
  • On the obverse side is Queen Elizabeth II.
  • The reverse side depicts a pair of humpback whales.
  • Designs from Neil Hollis.
  • Perth Mint’s “P” mint mark.

Humpback whales average 39 to 52 feet in length and can weigh as much as 30 metric tons. Though massive in their own right, the humpback whale is actually much smaller than the world’s largest animal. Blue whales can weigh an average of 150 metric tons, dwarfing the weight of the average humpback.

All 2019 1/3 oz Platinum Australian Humpback Whale coins are available to you in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. The coins are housed inside of protective acrylic tubes and come with “P” mint marks on the reverse side from the Perth Mint.

On the reverse of 2019 1/3 oz Platinum Humpback Whale Coins is the image of a mother and her calf just below the surface of the ocean as they swim. Engravings around the design field include “2019 Humpback Whale” and “Australian Antarctic Territory.”

The humpback whale travels more than 16,000 miles each year as it traverses the globe from its feeding grounds in the polar regions to its breeding and birthing grounds in tropical and subtropical climates. The diet of a humpback whale consists largely of krill and small fish. When the whales leave polar waters, they fast and live off their fat reserves during the birthing season.

For the obverse of 2019 1/3 oz Platinum Australian Humpback Whale, the Perth Mint introduces its new sixth design of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is depicted here in a right-profile portrait based on Jody Clark’s fifth-generation design for British coins. The image is the first on an Australian coin since the 1960s to show the Queen’s neckline and shoulders.

The Perth Mint was founded in Western Australia in 1899 as the third and final Royal Mint location on the continent. The Perth Mint is the only one of those three still in operation and is owned by the state government of Western Australia.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
