1OZ PLATINUM COIN 2021 KANGAROO PERTH MINT
Struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 99.95% pure platinum, the coin is issued as legal tender. The reverse of the coin depicts the classic artistry of a bounding red kangaroo surrounded by rays of sunlight. The inscription AUSTRALIAN KANGAROO, The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, 2021 year-date, and the weight and purity are also included in the design.The coin’s obverse bears the new Jody Clark effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the monetary denomination.
The coin’s reverse includes a security feature in the form of a micro-laser engraved letter within the design. It is only detectable under a magnifying glass. The coins come encased in a hard clear plastic case to help keep coins in pristine condition. Ainslie Bullion recommends leaving these cases un-tampered for the best preservation of value.
The Perth Mint is Australia’s leading precious metal refiner. Backed by the Western Australian Government, The Perth Mint has produced the official bullion coin program since 1987. The Perth Mint also produces a large range of high quality gold and silver bars. All Perth Mint gold products are refined to 99.99% purity (= 24 carat) and all silver products are refined to 99.9% purity. Ainslie Bullion is a Primary Bullion Distributor for Perth Mint.
Coins are a popular choice of bullion given their legal tender status (Government backing of the coin and its metal content), often smaller in size (making for easier disposal in the event of large price increases), international recognition (no fuss tradability overseas) and portability. Another common advantage is mintage limits on many government minted coins meaning a “collectible” premium can often be realised. Caution should be exercised in buying coins over bars for your Super as they can be classified as a collectible and need special storage / insurance requirements. Refer to the ATO or your advisor for more information.
