The lads give way to the ladies with the goddess Hera following LPM’s ‘Gods of Olympus’ bullion coin series Today sees the launch of the fourth in LPM Group's bullion reimagining of the Perth Mint's iconic 'Gods' series of numismatics. Debuting in 2014, they became hugely popular, even crashing the Perth Mint website on release day. The [...]
Our first new bullion coin release round-up of 2022 is a varied mix Continuing our regular round-ups of new bullion coins entering an ever-increasing market full of activity, is our first one of 2022. There's another wide selection of subjects, although formats tend to have stuck close to the traditional one-ounce in most cases. There [...]
LPM launches a new Street Fighter bullion coin series with an attractive Ryu debut release We've already remarked about the big uptick in coins celebrating the videogame world, and that doesn't seem like abating anytime soon. Latest to appear in the numismatic arcades is the next in LPM's Street Fighter homage, following their Mini-Figure coins, and [...]
The Perth Mint expands its uber-cool The Simpsons bullion coin range with 'Marge & Maggie' If you don't know 'The Simpsons', (where have you been..?) they're animated, hugely popular, even after 33 seasons, and one of the big franchises at the Perth Mint. There've been many proof coins, mostly unadventurous in design, but also a [...]
It's movie and TV coin time with our early November round-up of the new releases Our fifth round-up of movie and TV coins has a couple of surprises, but is generally more of the same.

Over the years we've seen a compass, thermometer, even an abacus inset into coins, which might sound [...]
Movie and TV coins for mid October - Potter, Batman, 007, Green Lantern, and a good doggie Regular media licenced coin roundup number four, we'll continue to do these as while they're quite time-consuming to put together, they are quicker than individual articles would be. Besides, the genre as a whole is quite repetitive, so it [...]
The Perth Mint expands its eclectic range of coins sporting unusual centres with an hourglass issue We haven't covered Perth Mint issues as much as we should, mainly because they've leaned heavily into numismatic versions of their iconic bullion coins and there's only so much you can write about those. However, we've missed a few goodies, [...]
Movie, TV and Popular Culture coin roundup for early September - Batman, Monsters Inc, and head bangers This is our third, roughly fortnightly round-up of coins in the popular culture genre. This has turned out to be an excellent way to corral the ever-increasing number of such coins, which are popular, so worthy of coverage, but time [...]
Another round up of the latest in movie and television coins - The Minions are Back, as is Star Wars, Harry Potter and more We published a roundup of popular culture coins last month and it looks to be a decent way to cover many of the ever increasing coins in this genre without cutting down [...]
