Ten ounces of gold in one piece is where premiums start working hard in your favor, and The Perth Mint has been refining in Western Australia since 1899. Each bar holds 10 troy oz of 99.99% pure gold, is poured rather than pressed, and carries its own serial number stamped into the face. Perth Mint gold clears with dealers worldwide without additional testing.
Key Features:
- Purity and Weight: 10 troy oz of 99.99% pure gold
- Metal Type: Gold
- Obverse Design: Perth Mint swan hallmark with weight, purity, and serial number
- Reverse Design: Intentionally blank cast face
The stamped face carries the mint’s circular hallmark at one end, a stylized swan set inside a ring reading THE PERTH MINT AUSTRALIA. The swan has identified Perth Mint bullion for decades and refers to the Swan River, where the city was founded. Below the hallmark, the serial number runs across the bar, with 10oz and 9999 stamped beneath it. Every mark is impressed into the metal while it is still soft, so the characters sink rather than rise.
The reverse is left plain. Both faces show what casting produces rather than what a press produces: rounded shoulders, softly irregular edges, and a raised lip running around the perimeter where the gold cooled against the mold wall. The surface carries a deep warm luster with faint flow lines visible across it. Individual bars vary slightly from one another, which is normal for poured production.
Bars ship new in mint condition, direct from Perth Mint supply. Perth Mint is government-owned by the State of Western Australia and holds LBMA Good Delivery accreditation.
Cast bars trade at lower premiums than minted bars because the production process is simpler, so you pay for gold rather than finishing. At ten ounces, that difference adds up meaningfully against buying the same weight in coins. Order the Perth Mint 10 oz Cast Gold Bar today.
