The Perth Mint
Source: perthmint.com.au
The Perth Mint opened in 1899 in response to the discovery of rich gold deposits in Coolgardie and Kalgoorlie. It was Australia's third branch of Britain's Royal Mint - the others being the Sydney Mint and the Melbourne Mint (both closed).
In 2003, The Perth Mint officially opened an 8,400 square meter state-of-the-art manufacturing facility next door to its original limestone building. Dominating the Mint's heritage precinct, these two important buildings are powerful symbols of more than 100 years of minting excellence in Western Australia.

Closed: Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Day, Good Friday and Anzac Day.
