Perth Mint Platinum
The Perth Mint is Australia's oldest operating mint, tracing its history back to Great Britain's Royal Mint. It remained under British control until 1970 when it became an independent mint. To this day, The Perth Mint operates under the same premises as when it began.
History of The Perth Mint
Sir John Forrest laid The Perth Mint’s foundation in 1896. Its purpose was to service the quickly growing population in Western Australia, which was exploding due to the discovery of Gold deposits in surrounding areas. Three years later, The Perth Mint opened. Money for which miners could exchange their Gold was in short supply in that era so miners brought the fruits of their labor to The Perth Mint, where it was minted into Gold coins.
The Post-Sovereign Era
In 1931, the British Empire withdrew sovereigns from circulation, so The Perth Mint began to produce a range of Gold and Silver coins in addition to refining Gold. In this era, The Perth Mint became a recognized standard when it comes to the value of Gold. The mint reached new heights in 1957, producing what some have called “the purest of all Gold” in the form of a 13 oz (400 gram) proof “plate” containing .999999 fine Gold. The Royal Mint was so impressed with the purity, they ordered some as a benchmark for their own standards.
