{{/presale}} {{#promotion_on}}The Perth Mint began operations in 1899 as a branch of Britains Royal Mint, established to refine gold from Western Australias busy goldfields and produce sovereign coins for the British Empire. Located in Perths city center, it became the third Royal Mint branch in Australia, following Sydney and Melbourne. Today, Perth Mint is known as one of the top gold refiners in the world. Now, 10 oz Gold Cast Bars from Perth Mint are available from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
Each 10 oz Gold Cast Bar is packaged in protective plastic. Cast gold bars are an affordable way to own physical gold. Theyre created by melting precise amounts of gold and pouring the molten metal into moulds. After cooling, each bar is stamped with incuse hallmarks and left with a blank reverse.
Design
The obverse of each 10 oz Gold Cast Bar includes the Perth Mints markings. The circular logo with its graceful swan appears at the top, followed by the bars serial number, weight, and purity. The reverse side of the 10 oz Gold Bar is blank, displaying the natural surface patterns left from the casting process. The inscriptions on the obverse read THE PERTH MINT, AUSTRALIA, 10 OZS, and 9999.
History
Western Australias gold mining industry started small in the late 1880s but grew rapidly after major discoveries at Coolgardie and Kalgoorlie in the 1890s. During the height of the gold rush, from the mid-1890s into the early 1900s, the region produced hundreds of thousands of ounces of gold each year. The Golden Mile at Kalgoorlie became one of the richest gold-bearing areas in the world, moving from simple surface mining to more advanced deep-shaft operations as easy-to-reach deposits were mined out.
