About the Perth Mint 1 oz Gold Bar
The Perth Mint is Australia's official bullion mint, established in 1899 and owned by the Government of Western Australia. It is one of the most trusted and widely recognized names in the global bullion market, known for both its coins and bars.
The 1 oz bar weighs one troy ounce and is 99.99% pure gold. The front carries the Perth Mint's swan logo with "The Perth Mint Australia" wording and the stated purity and weight, while the reverse features a repeating kangaroo pattern. It is commonly sold sealed in the Perth Mint's tamper-evident case, printed with technical specifications, a unique bar number, and the Chief Assayer's signature.
Why the Assay Case Matters
A sealed assay case lets a buyer verify the bar's weight and purity without removing it from its packaging, since the case is tamper-evident and the printed bar number can be checked against the bar visible through the seal. This makes an in-assay bar generally easier to verify and resell than a loose bar of the same brand and weight.
Keep the bar sealed if you plan to sell it. If the assay case is torn, opened, or otherwise compromised, it no longer carries the same verification value as an intact example, even if the bar itself is genuine — bring it in as-is and we can assess what you have.
Our Take
A sealed Perth Mint 1 oz bar is a straightforward way to hold recognized-brand gold with minimal guesswork — the packaging does most of the verification work up front, and the brand is backed by the Government of Western Australia and accepted by dealers everywhere.
If you have one to sell, keep it sealed and bring it in as-is. Attempting to open the packaging yourself does not help and can reduce what a buyer is willing to pay compared to an intact example.
For buyers comparing options, the general 1 oz gold bar page, the Valcambi in-assay bar, the PAMP Lady Fortuna VERISCAN bar, and the Royal Canadian Mint in-assay bar cover other recognized refiners side by side.
Common Mistakes With In-Assay Gold Bars
Opening the assay case before selling
Leave the bar sealed in its original tamper-evident case. Opening it does not add value and removes the verification benefit the packaging provides.
Assuming a sealed card alone proves authenticity
We inspect the assay case for signs of tampering and confirm the bar number rather than accepting a sealed appearance at face value.
Assuming damaged packaging does not matter
A torn, opened, or significantly damaged assay case is not the same as an intact sealed example, even if the bar itself is genuine.
Comparing online retail ask prices to dealer buy prices
An online retail asking price includes dealer margin. A dealer's buy price reflects costs, inventory, and the resale market.
Assuming all refiner brands carry the same premium
The Perth Mint is a recognized government mint, but the exact premium a bar commands still depends on condition, packaging, and current market demand — not the brand name alone.

A 1 oz Perth Mint gold bar contains one troy ounce of 99.99% pure gold, with a minimum gross weight of approximately 31.104 grams, as stated on the bar and its assay card.
The front carries the Perth Mint's swan logo and "The Perth Mint Australia" wording, along with the purity and weight (99.99% Pure Gold, 1 Ounce). The reverse features a repeating kangaroo pattern, along with technical specifications, a unique bar number, and the Chief Assayer's signature printed on the assay card.
In assay means the bar is sealed in its original tamper-evident case from the Perth Mint, which certifies the bar's weight and purity without requiring it to be removed and tested individually. The card includes a unique bar number matching the bar itself.
An intact, sealed assay card can carry a small premium over a loose bar of the same brand and weight, since it provides an added layer of verification and is generally easier to resell. The gold content itself is identical either way — the difference comes down to packaging and ease of verification.
It can. A torn, opened, or significantly damaged assay case does not carry the same verification value as an intact sealed example, even if the bar itself is genuine. Bring the bar in as-is and we can assess what you have.
No. Leave the bar sealed in its original tamper-evident case. Opening it does not add value and removes the verification benefit the packaging provides.
We inspect the assay case for signs of tampering, confirm the bar number is legible and consistent, and weigh and evaluate the sealed unit. In some cases additional testing methods may be used. We do not simply take a sealed card at face value without inspection.
