The Australian one-ounce gold piece (abbreviated as 1 oz and designated with Au for "gold") is a bullion coin format. Uniquely, in Australia there are two mints authorised to strike legal tender: the Royal Australian Mint (which also makes the country's circulating coinage) and the Perth Mint which only makes collector and bullion coins, as well as other bullion products. Both mints endeavour to create coins with attractive designs, and to introduce new designs and themes often, in order to raise the numismatic value of the coins over the value of previous metal used. This premium proof high-relief one-ounce gold coin is part of the Australian Swan series, which has been issued by the Perth Mint since 2017 in silver and gold formats. The Mint says about it: Australian Swan coins portray one of our most popular wildlife themes. Each year, our coin artists aim to capture the beauty and grace of these magnificent creatures, which in Australia are characterised by distinctive black plumage. The 2020 reverse design portrays a spectacular high relief impression of a swan landing on water. The noticeably raised image appears on a highly-polished concave surface. | ||||||
