The Perth Mint releases a stunning Asian-iinspired Koi fish silver coin crushing the scales at two kilograms An extremely rare format for the modern collectible coin market, two kilos is quite a beast compared to the usual 1–2 ounces, that make up the vast bulk of the market today. However, the Perth Mint likes to dabble, [...]
The LPM 'Gods of Olympus' bullion recreation of the Perth Mint originals ventures into new territory with Ares The seventh bullion version of the Perth Mint's iconic 'Gods' series of antiqued numismatics has launched, and has veered away from the original numismatic series for the first time. The bullion range has previously taken the designs from the [...]
We've just had a Quicklook at the Australian Emu bullion coins, but alongside it was a coloured coin for the collector. This is presented boxed, with a Certificate of Authenticity, and sporting a mintage cap of just 2,500 units. If you've seen the 2023 bullion variant, the first thing that strikes you about the coloured version is a completely [...]
Another perennial favourite of the bullion calendar, the Perth Mint's 'Australian Emu', is back with a sixth annual release in both one-ounce 0.9999 silver, and one-ounce 0.9999 gold. Launched in 2018, it was exclusively distributed by European dealer, Metal Market EU, something that remains the case to this day. Like many limited mintage series around today, especially from [...]

We were hoping to publish this yesterday, but, despite already covering a few [...]
The Perth Mint goes heavy on the crime fighting in May with The Phantom, and James Bond featuring May sees the Perth Mint lean heavily into its various pop-culture franchises, with its long-running James Bond range getting a boost with a new mini character coin, alongside additions to the classic 'Legacy' series, showcasing the various actors [...]
The Perth Mint's pretty Australian Swan bullion coin returns with a seventh design in gold and silver As one of the first in the Perth Mint's new wave of lower mintage bullion coin series, the Australian Swan was a huge hit on its release back in 2017. Maintaining the signature style defined over many years by [...]
Bullion round-up 15: Batman, birds, dragons, scientists, monkeys, and a Slavic sea spirit, Does it get more varied than that! Part two is here, although we called it round-up 15 for clarity, and there's another varied selection from around the world. The Komodo Dragon literally just came out, and barely scraped in, but it's a great [...]
Bullion round-up 12: Australia, Cambodia, Cameroon, Samoa, and the UK, add new coins in our last collation of 2022 Our twelfth bullion round-up was due to go live late on Friday, but a refresh to the site's theme framework meant our attention was occupied elsewhere. It comes with quite a few tweaks, which we'll try to [...]
