Thanks @Aurora et luna. Strange with the useless two prefix zeros as the limited run is already set to 15'000. It's not like there's an abundance of space. Also the new trimmed down texts (without 'The Perth Mint' and 'W.A') make it less original imo. Link to serialized bullion blob http://www.perthmintbullion.com/Buy-Gold-Bars/1oz-Cast.aspx?productId=594 Anyone had a chance to compare the exact weight with a bog standard PM blob - just curious. (edit. Ainslie also advertising https://www.ainsliebullion.com.au/m...d-cast-bar/tabid/85/cat/1/id/221/default.aspx)
And.................. One day they might put the words "gold" on their bars. Seriously, I don't understand why The Perth Mint Doesn't have "gold" or "silver" on their cast bars. At the moment they say 9999 Fine WA Ok, I know WA is a great place and lovely people but why not stamp GOLD instead of WA?

It's so you can tell the commissar at the border checkpoint that it's a .9999 fine brass souvenir from your great grandmother's collection
I like the idea. But I don't understand the 15k limited run? These don't have dates, so they are making 15k serialised 1oz bars and never going to make them again? Or will they change the stamp slightly and reset or continue the numbering down the track? Are they going to stop making the normal 1oz blobs?
I agree change needed for the next generation of blob - may I suggested dropping “fine” add Troy Gold but don’t mess with the “WA” it just to important to the brand.
Lets pitch to the WA Govt/Perth Mint we need to conduct a study into brand perception and get a few hundred thou to run "focus groups" for several months
^^Great idea @Stoic Phoenix, I'm in Just look how many times Neil Vance mentions WA in this vid with Chards (one if not the largest bullion retailer in UK).
Thank you for the kind words @jultorsk, Glad you enjoyed the video! Would love to know what you guys think of the new 2021 bullion range! PS, If you are in search of gold bars produced by the Perth Mint, perhaps our page below will be of interest! https://www.chards.co.uk/products?search=perth+mint+bars
https://bullionnow.com.au/product/perth-mint-serialised-cast-gold-bar-1oz/ Spot + $65 here, not much more than their normal PM cast bar price. Is it still no extra premium from Perth Mint direct?
