Guided heritage talk

Make the most of your visit to the historic Perth Mint by joining one of our hourly guided talks. The grand heritage building, the heavily secured vault and the original melting house provide the cues for many extraordinary stories about Western Australia's golden history and the Mint's prolific output of priceless gold bars and coins.

The Gold Exhibition

The Perth Mint Gold Exhibition is a world class destination which brings the history of Western Australian gold, and The Perth Mint, to life. Offering a unique combination of attractions, the Gold Exhibition gives visitors the rare opportunity to experience the emotive journey of gold discovery. The inspiring story of the search for gold in Western Australia unfolds in a multimedia extravaganza, with interactive displays, historic images and aged artefacts forming the backdrop to a glittering array of pure gold exhibits.

Marvel at the largest coin ever made, weighing one tonne of pure gold; view Australia's most dazzling display of natural gold nuggets; watch molten gold being poured to form a gleaming solid gold bar; handle more than AUD 500,000 worth of gold bullion and much more!

Record breaking coin

The centrepiece of the Gold Exhibition is the Australian Kangaroo One Tonne Gold Coin, the largest and most valuable coin in the world. Tipping the scale at a massive one tonne of 99.99% pure gold, this colossal coin measures nearly 80cm wide and is more than 12cm deep. 

Awarded a prestigious Guinness World Record, this monumental gold masterpiece is valued at more than AUD 50 million and is showcased in all its glory on a revolving platform.

Watch a gold pour

Witness the amazing spectacle of a traditional gold pour in The Perth Mint's original melting house, during which pure gold is heated to molten temperatures and transformed into a gleaming solid gold bar. The 19th century brick walls of the melting house are literally embedded with gold dust, accumulated over many decades of continuous refining.

Australia’s largest natural nugget collection

Many early prospectors spent years working in harsh conditions in outback Australia in search of gold nuggets. Marvel at Australia's most dazzling collection of natural gold nuggets, wafers and crystals, including Newmont's Normandy Nugget, the second largest gold nugget in existence, weighing an impressive 25.5 kilograms (820 ounces).

Historic Perth Mint coin exhibition

Among the historic coins struck by The Perth Mint are:

• An 1899 gold sovereign – the very first coin produced in Perth
• The first copper decimal coin made in Australia – a 1966 dated 1 cent piece
• Two of the largest legal tender coins in the world – the 10 kilo Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Bullion Coins
