| Coin | Platinum Fifty Grams CombiBar - ABC Bullion |

Australia has two mints, the Royal Australian Mint (which also makes the country's circulating coinage) and the Perth Mint, which are both very active in the bullion coinage space; coins issued by them are legal tender.
Additionally, there are private issuers of bullion which is not legal tender and is targeted at investors and not at coin collectors - such as this one.
This 50 g (fifty grams) platinum bar is part of the ABC Bullion platinum bullion range. Unlike the "tablets", it is made in a way that allows it to be easily broken up into fifty one-gram mini tablets. |
