The Perth Mint's 125th Anniversary Five Sovereign Gilded Australia gold proof

Description: Australia's gold rush in the 1850s unearthed huge amounts of precious metal. To turn this enormous wealth into coins, the Perth Mint was established in 1899 as a branch of the British Royal Mint to mint sovereigns from Western Australian gold. The first coin minted and now permanently on display at the Perth Mint's gold exhibition was one of a total of 106 million sovereigns produced by 1931. According to tradition, St. George was a Greek Roman soldier and Christian martyr. Numerous myths arose about his person during the Middle Ages, including the popular legend in which he saves a princess from an evil dragon. Embodying the courage and victory of good over evil, St. George became a symbol of chivalry in medieval chivalry and served as an inspiration for bravery in battle and national pride. This Australian Five Sovereign 2024 Gold Proof Gilded Coin is struck by the Perth Mint from 91.67% pure gold and issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965. The Perth Mint will release no more than 150 copies of the Perth Mint 125th Anniversary Australia Five Sovereign 2024 Gold Proof Gilded Coin.
