Is the Royal Australian Mint the same as the Perth Mint?

I've seen a 2012 Lunar Dragon that is from there, but looks different than what I'm seeing on E-bay.

  • I don't think so , online it's two different web sites with different products.Id almost say Perth just does bullion but it has base coins too.I know what you mean about different designs on the lunars,i don't know what to think about that.

    NO - two very different mints. The 2012 Dragons you seek are from the Perth Mint. Beware of Canadian Royal Mint Dragons too.

  • Thanks Akbeez,is it fair to say now i think about it a Perth bullion piece will always have the P mintmark ? Ive realised mine do have,the gold lunars though.
