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 .
