The Perth Mint of Australia introduced the world to the Golden Nugget bullion coin in 1987 with the release of four editions, ranging from 1 oz to 1/10 oz. These coins featured golden nuggets that were discovered throughout Australia that were distinguished by their size and weight. The "hand of faith nugget" was discovered in 1980, only 12 inches below the earth's surface by a man using a metal detector

ABOUT THE PERTH MINT

The Perth Mint opened in 1899 as the British Royal Mint’s 3rd branch in Australia. The historical Hay Street location handled gold refining until moving to a modern facility in April 1990. Ownership of the mint was transferred to the Government of Western Australia in July of 1970. Under an agreement with the Commonwealth Treasury, they were empowered to mint and market gold, silver, and platinum as Australian legal tender to investors and collectors worldwide. Today, they are amongst the elite world mints whose pure gold, silver, and platinum items are trusted without question. Items such as the Australian Nugget, Silver Coin Series (Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, and Platypus to name a few), as well as the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Coin Series are extensively sought after by bullion investors worldwide.
