About the Perth Mint

The Perth Mint is a world-renowned mint that is located in Perth, Western Australia. It was established in 1899, during Western Australia's gold rush era, as one of three Australian branch mints of the British Royal Mint (the others were the Sydney Mint and the Melbourne Mint).

The Perth Mint is known for producing high-quality gold, silver, and other precious metal products, including bullion and collectible coins. It is known for its innovation and beautiful designs, many of which feature Australian wildlife or are inspired by Australian culture and history. In addition to coins, the Perth Mint also produces bars, jewelry, and other precious metal products.

The Perth Mint was originally a government establishment, then it was transferred to the government of Western Australia in 1970, and it now operates independently of the Royal Australian Mint, which is the official mint of the Australian government.
