I need some help
September 28, 2008, 05:50:42 AM
My coindealing friend has been googling and I have been webcrawling as mad and we cannot find a one ounce gold bar from the Perth Mint
can anyone assure this thing is for real with a link ?

Kitco has Perth mint gold bars, but no picture.

Do add this coin to my collection?

Kitco has Perth mint gold bars, but no picture.

we did a google picture search and found that all bars at the perth mint are rectangular and struck ( Oriana series and Black Swan series )
this bar is square and poored and may be old  i dunno but it seems to be the black swan motive

I have all their catalogs for the last 2 1/2 years and there is nothing in them.
Maybe you should e-mail them and ask. The black swan logo looks fairly
authentic, but I'm sure that would be easy to replicate.

Thank you Nancy
That is the item and the scaring made me contact the vendor and inquire about his perfect photo
The vendor I was in contact with claims he cannot make photos and is using somebody elses pic
and that his bar has some scars back and fore so I am going to pass
Buying a scratched bar , unknown to all the internet ,does not look like a good idea

I have seen them before, the WA Mint makes them, and I believe they were on their site the last time I looked.

Perth mint has only rectangular oriana and black swan bars no square bars
But the vendor does not have a picture and says there are a few scratches so he can keep his bar
