Here's an Oct. 25 video upload of the Perth Mint making a one tonne gold coin -

Didn't see it posted here, so I thought I'd link it. Pretty interesting.

Its neat the way the coin was cast and not struck with dies.

I can see PCGS slabbing it, but they'd have to hire a few laborers to flip it over for the graders.

Curious to see the supply source of blanks to the US Mint, it appears that the Perth Mint is in on the action.

However.

I'm watching this Perth Mint promotional video and then this image is one chosen by the Perth Mint to sell it's wares in the video...



OMG!

LOL...! but if you over look the colorized coins they have it going on...

Our Mint Should Take Notes...

Wow!
For the lobby?
I've heard of 'window dressing' but this is unreal.

Gorgeous coin even if it is cast.
