WHY PERTH MINT COINS ARE MORE POPULAR THAN BARS

While the fabrication cost of bars is generally lower than coins, if portability and international tradability is important to you we suggest you consider bullion coins because:

  1. The wider distribution     network of coins means they are more recognised. Alternatively,    check with bullion dealers in the country you plan to visit to see if they     are familiar with the AGR Matthey and Perth Mint marks.
  2. In some countries bars are     taxable whereas legal tender is not. Since Perth Mint coins are legal     tender, this can be a significant cost advantage when     importing.
  3. When selling, the highly     finished surface and milled edge serrations of a coin can make less     knowledgeable bullion dealers more comfortable with coins than bars.
  4. The silver Kookaburra     silver coin is available in 1 ounce     and 10 ounce as well as Kilo coin     as is readily excepted all over the world .

Why are users outbidding themselves?

When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.

When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.

Audit

The Coin Sheriff program allows our members to request an audit on any product, which is completed by an independent Numismatic Specialist who assesses the accuracy of the item description and pictures.
