PARTY DUDE

Michelangelo is a wisecracking party dude famous for exclaiming ‘cowabunga’. Although energetic, enthusiastic and naturally gifted, he is reluctant to train, which frustrates his brothers Leonardo, Donatello and Raphael who believe that with more focus and discipline he could really excel at ninjutsu. Nevertheless, Mikey is an impressive fighter whose weapons of choice are nunchucks, which he handles with skill and precision.

COLOURED MICHELANGELO DESIGN

The coin portrays Michelangelo in his orange eye mask busting through a brick wall with nunchuks. The design includes the inscription ‘MICHELANGELO’ and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.

H.M. KING CHARLES III EFFIGY

The coin’s obverse portrays the Jody Clark effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, and the monetary denomination.

PRESENTATION PACKAGING

Accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity, the coin is one of eight TMNT character coins scheduled for release. Each piece comes in a presentation box and shipper which can be stacked together to form a city scape scene.

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.
