Review:
The Perth Mint was opened in 1899, in response to the gold rush in Western Australia. It is still operating out of the same building and supplies 18 billion AUD in coins, bars and medallions to more than 100 countries, annually. High tech vaults protect the precious metals that customers store on the premises. The Mint is also a tourist destination. The Mine to Mint tour will take a whole day. The history and the mint's role in producing legal tender and bullion for the British Empire is told in the Gold Exhibition. The shop sells coins, including novelties such as Barbie and Star Trek collectibles.
