Australian Kangaroo One Tonne Gold Coin
125 netballers from Great Southern, North West and Wheatbelt Goldfields netball associations were immersed in the grand heritage of The Perth Mint while learning about the value of gold to our nation ahead of the State Cup in October.
The regional netballers were treated to one-hour guided tour of the historic Perth Mint, including the Gold Exhibition and the original melting house, experiencing the emotive journey of gold discovery in Western Australia.
From its renowned precious metals refinery to its modern manufacturing facilities, through to its range of gold coins and bars, and innovative precious metals investment offerings – The Perth Mint has evolved from its humble yet industrious beginnings into a dynamic enterprise which embraces the global gold market.
As Australia’s only remaining, fully operating ‘gold rush’ mint of the 1800s, The Perth Mint’s grand colonial building continues to guard the wealth of operations and gold exhibits, which each play a role in adding value to, and promoting, gold worldwide.
