The coin’s unveiling at the NYSE marks the Perth Mint’s launching of its gold-backed ETF, the Perth Mint Physical Gold ETF (NYSEArca: AAAU).

AAAU is the world’s first government-backed gold ETF, with the majority of the fund’s gold vaulted at the Perth Mint.

    I was wondering who was paying for the 1 ton gold coin, they used to promote the fund... I hope not the holders of the ETF.

    Also can one just open an account at the perth mint? Skip the etf?

    I know there is profit to be gained in ETF's... but I like the hard gold...just getting to old to play the games....and too comfortable... ;) Cheers, RickO

    I prefer investing in my own business. If I fail, oh well. At least I can't blame the government for buying gold.

    I'm sure that the Perth Mint people are very nice people, but I'm staying over here with my stuff.
