Though it may look like a bar at first glance, this product is actually a rectangular coin. The key difference lies in its legal status.
Unlike bullion bars, which are not recognized as legal tender, rectangular coins are officially issued by government mints and carry a face value. That means each one is classified as currency—even though its intrinsic metal value far exceeds its denomination.
We refer to these products as coins to clearly distinguish them from standard bullion bars, helping you make informed decisions about the type of precious metals you're adding to your portfolio.
With a limited mintage of only 25,000 coins worldwide, the 2018 Dragon Gold Rectangular Coin is highly sought after by collectors and investors alike. Its distinctive shape and intricate design make it a standout piece in any collection.
The Perth Mint opened in 1899 as the British Royal Mint’s third branch in Australia. The historical Hay Street location handled gold refining until moving to a modern facility in April 1990. Ownership of the mint was transferred to the Government of Western Australia in July of 1970. Items such as the Australian Nugget, Silver Coin Series (Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, and Platypus to name a few), as well as the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Coin Series are extensively sought after by bullion investors worldwide.
