Perth Mint celebrates Christmas!   Highly anticipated, The Perth Mint’s annual Christmas coins are crafted in the shape of a decorative star. Beautiful gifts, each release doubles as a hanging ornament that adds a touch of elegance to any tree. Limited mintage is halted at 1,500 coins. This year’s release features a design harking back to Christmas in the bush at a time when settlers used colourful native flora to decorate their homes and verandas. The Christmas 2020 coin is a proof quality 99.99% pure silver with decorative star shaped design & is an Australian Legal Tender too!   Native Wildlife Design is highlighted and the coin’s reverse side portrays a delightful garland of iconic flowers including golden coloured wattle, red Waratah and Bottle brush . Within the arrangement are two Yellow Robins, inquisitive and self-assured birds well-known for their piping pre-dawn calls. Also included in the design is the inscription Merry Christmas and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.  

  Antiqued Coloured Silver Coin! Perth Mint announced the roots of astrology lie in the idea that an individual’s character and fate is somehow linked to the arrangement of the stars, Sun and Moon at the time of their birth. The ancient Babylonians identified 12 different patterns of stars through which the Sun appeared to travel. Later, respected Greek astronomer Ptolemy codified many astrological concepts, attributing a name derived from Greek or Roman mythology to each constellation in the ‘zodiac’ (meaning circle of little animals).  A horoscope interprets a chart of the heavens at a precise point in time – such as someone’s birthdate - to explain aspects of their personality and predict future events.   The coin’s reverse portrays original artistry of each zodiac sign in colour: Aries the ram; Taurus the bull; Gemini the twins; Cancer the crab; Leo the lion; Virgo the maiden; Libra the scales; Scorpio the scorpion; Sagittarius the centaur; Capricorn the goat; Aquarius the water be
