Gold was discovered in Australia in the mid 1800's. Since then, Australia has become the second largest gold producing country in the world. In 2018, Austrlia produced over 312 tonnes of gold from it's mines.
The Perth Mint opened in 1899 after the discovery of gold rich deposits in Coolgardie and Kalgoorie. Gold miners would bring raw gold from the mines in Western Australia to the Mint where it would be refined and minted into gold coins. From 1899 through 1931 over 106 million Gold Sovereigns were struck at the Mint.
The Perth Mint is one of a elite group of top mints worldwide that produces pure gold, silver and platinum legal tender coins.Many of the coins produced by the Perth Mint are in high demand amongst investors and collectors. In addition to producing well known bullion coins, such as the Australian Gold Nugget, the Australian Kookaburra and Koala series', the Mint is also entrusted to produce legal tender coins for other countries.
