Perth Mint
The largest distributor of precious metals in Australia is the Perth Mint. The Perth Mint produces high-quality gold, silver, platinum, and palladium products such as coins, medals, and bullion bars. With a history dating back to the late 1800s, right here you can learn more about the Perth Mint and its history.
Background on the Perth Mint
The Perth Mint was founded in 1899 as the third and final colonial branch of the UK’s Royal Mint in Australia, following the Sydney Mint and the Melbourne Mint. From 1899 to 1931 the Perth Mint struck over 106 million gold sovereigns and half sovereigns for currency in Australia. The Perth Mint then primarily struck gold bars until gold coinage picked up again in 1940.
In 1957, the Perth Mint produced a proof plate of 999.999 fine gold which was the purest gold to be refined. It was so impressive that the Royal Mint ordered some to use as a benchmark for their own minting.
By 1970, the Perth Mint was transferred over to the state government of Western Australia. While the Sydney Mint and the Melbourne Mint shut down, the final branch of the UK’s Royal Mint in Australia survived.
Since being turned over to Australian control, the Perth Mint has been at the forefront of creating some of the world’s most unique and innovative coin programs. Similar to Royal Canadian Mint coins, the Perth Mint uses the effigy of the reigning British monarch on the obverse of their coin programs.

Lunar Series
The Perth Mint debuted its Lunar Series in 1996. Most mints around the world supply lunar-themed bullion based on the Chinese zodiac, none have a history quite like the Lunar Series from the Perth Mint.
The series debuted in 1996 during the Year of the Rat. Once the Year of the Rat returned in 2008, the Perth Mint debuted Lunar Series II. Lunar Series III was introduced in 2020.
The overall series offers a lot of variety. Coins are struck in several unique sizes in gold, silver, and platinum. The Perth Mint also issues proof strikes, colorized coins, gilded coins, and even proof colorized sets of coins.
Australian Nugget/ Kangaroo Series
This series can be traced back to 1987 when it was known as the Australian Gold Nugget Series. Coins were issued featuring the image of a gold nugget. The series was rebranded in 1989 to feature the image of a kangaroo instead. Coins are now issued annually, showing a unique image of the animal on the reverse with each coin. Gold Australian Kangaroo Coins are released annually in sizes such as 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/10 oz and 1/20 oz. Larger coins are released more sporadically.
Silver coins debuted in 1993 as a proof coin. BU coins started to become annual issues in 2015. The following year in the Silver Australian Kangaroo series also marked the first time the Perth Mint issued silver coins with a .9999 fine silver purity. Unlike the gold coin program, silver coins feature the same image of the kangaroo on each release. This design is based on a 1938 design for the Australian copper penny.
Proof colorized, and gilded silver coins are also available featuring more unique imagery of the kangaroo.
