In 2012 the Perth Mint issued a one tonne gold coin - the largest and most valuable coin ever produced.
Design
The coin is part of the popular nugget series (also known as Kangaroos). The obverse features Queen Elizabeth's portrait, whilst the reverse depicts the red kangaroo.

If you are interested in the coin please contact us. We will be unable to quote a firm price, as we do not have it in stock, but we will be able to give you an indication.
Delivery
As you can imagine, we have no idea how to transport a one tonne coin. We checked with Royal Mail but the size and weight of the coin more than exceeds their limits. We are sure that we will be able to find a way.
