Live Bullion Pricing

Launched in Australia in 2010 and extremely popular with Australian investors, the site is the world’s first to offer ‘live’ pricing on an extensive range of internationally recognised bullion products.

For those investing in precious metals for the first time, gold and silver prices are set on 24-hour international spot markets. Thanks to a breakthrough by the Mint, real-time data from these markets is used to continuously update the price of bullion coins and bars displayed for sale on the website.

The site offers many other benefits too, including:

1.    Volume breaks on coins
2.    High and low price alerts
3.    Price graphs
4.    Daily media coverage of precious metals
5.    A free Wealth Tracker widget to instantly calculate the value of your portfolio

 - As the owner of Australia's only gold refinery, we refine almost all the gold mined in Australia, one of the largest producers in the world.

 - Small investment bars, which bear our official LBMA mark, can usually be traded internationally without the need for assay.

WEBSITE INFORMATION

The Perth Mint bullion website will be closed on Monday 1 October 2012. We apologise to any clients who may be inconvenienced by this unavoidable action.

Closure of the site for sales of bullion coins and bars is due to the Queen’s Birthday Public Holiday in Western Australia, and the consequent non-opening of our Treasury Department.

Bullion sales on the web, including the new 2013 Australian Kangaroo gold bullion coin series, will resume on Tuesday 2 October at 8.30 am WST time.

Please note that the launch of the 2013 Australian Kangaroo gold bullion coin series will go ahead as previously announced on Monday 1. Customers interested in these coins on launch day may wish to contact a Perth Mint authorised distributor.

BULLION BARS AND COINS

Indicative interest is pointing to extremely high demand for 1oz releases from the 2013 Australian Lunar bullion coin program.

The next release, which will become available in early September, features designs celebrating the Year of the Snake - often referred to in China as the ‘Little Dragon’!

Our sales predictions are based on expressions of interest received from our international wholesale partners. They’re running at levels comparable to the record-breaking Dragon series this time last year.

As you know, the full Dragon mintages of 30,000 1oz gold and 300,000 1oz silver coins sold out at the Mint in record time, and these mintage restrictions remain unchanged for 2013.

So again we could see large numbers of investors hitting our bullion website on launch day in order to secure Snake coins direct from the Mint.

For this reason, I want to assure you that we’ve had a close look at the system’s capacity issues which resulted in inconvenience for some coin buyers last year.

We’ve done a lot of work to beef up the site with special focus on measures to avoid overloading the ‘checkout’ at extremely busy times. There will also be more feedback via screen alerts advising buyers how their orders are progressing prior to confirmation.

In parallel with this work, we have also taken important steps to solve frustrating temporary stock outs of other weights in the Lunar coin series. The new manufacturing schedule in the factory means we’ve already amassed considerable stocks of most other Lunar Snake coins – including popular 1/2oz, 2oz and 5oz silver issues.

In conclusion, I’m confident that The Perth Mint is in a much stronger position to satisfy website demand for new Lunar Snake coins and we’re looking forward to a smoother launch come September.

WEBSITE INFORMATION

In his recent post, Bron answered the question How Are Perth Mint Gold And Silver Spot Rates Calculated?

The next logical question for bullion buyers might be “how do I follow every change in The Perth Mint spot rate throughout the trading day?”

For many, the spot price graphs on our homepage are useful for deciding when to buy or sell precious metals.

However, for those that don’t have time to watch the graph all day long, there’s a better option – as many small investors have already discovered.

Automatic Email & SMS Price Alerts

For everyone registered to buy on www.perthmintbullion.com, we offer a free, automated ‘Price Alerts’ service.

Here’s how it works.

You choose the metal(s) you are interested in and set a ‘low’ price at which you want to buy and a ‘high’ price at which you’d consider selling.

As soon as our spot rate hits either of these upper and lower limits, the service triggers an immediate personal alert via e-mail or SMS.

These prompts are designed to ensure you’ll never miss a potential buying or selling opportunity in today’s volatile market.

Thousands of our registered buyers are already relying on Price Alerts, suggesting that this invaluable tool is helping investors in their aim of “buying low and selling high”.
