1 gram Gold Bullion Minted - Perth Mint

Perth Mint Minted Gold Bar

These newly-styled Perth Mint “Minted” Gold Bars feature a new innovative tamper-proof display card which the bar is blister packed into, individually serial numbered and signed by the Chief Assayer of the Perth Mint which ensures that the Minted Gold Bar is exactly as it was from leaving the Perth Mint.

The Perth Mint is Australia’s leading precious metal refiner accredited by the LBMA. Backed by the Western Australian Government, The Perth Mint has produced the official bullion coin program since 1987. The Perth Mint also produces a large range of high quality gold and silver bars. All Perth Mint gold products are LBMA accredited and refined to 99.99% purity (= 24 carat) and all silver products are refined to 99.9% purity.

Bullion Bars come in 3 main types – cast, minted or extruded. The choice is ultimately a personal one with each having its own advantages. Some people prefer cast as it is the cheapest form and many will argue harder to forge than a minted bar. Metal purity is the same. Whilst at a price premium, others prefer the beauty and precision of a minted bar many of which come wrapped in protective coating and with certificates or numbers providing further comfort to some. Extruded bars are rarer and in essence, form a hybrid between cast and minted with the cost premium sitting in between as well. Bars are considered investment grade if they have a recognised hallmark (brand), weight (in Troy Ounces, gram or kilograms), and purity (eg 9999 or 99.99%).

Authentic Feature

Produced in eight sizes, gold bullion minted bars portray a struck version of The Perth Mint’s LBMA registered mark on the front and kangaroo-shaped motifs on the back. Each minted bar comes housed in tamper-evident packaging which shows the word VOID around the edge of the blister if the card has been prized opened. The card is charcoal-coloured with a dark, watermark-like image of the Mint’s stylised swan logo.
