2019 1/3 oz Australian Bottlenose Dolphin Platinum Coin — .9995/.9999 Fine Platinum

The 2019 1/3 oz Platinum Bottlenose Dolphin coin from The Perth Mint offers a unique and elegant entry into platinum bullion — combining the intrinsic value of 1/3 troy ounce of platinum with a striking and artistic marine design. Struck in high-quality platinum and issued under the Australian Currency Act 1965, it carries the face value of AUD $30 and global recognition as minted legal tender.

The coin stands out for investors and collectors who want platinum exposure in a smaller, more affordable format than 1 oz coins — while still enjoying the prestige and craftsmanship of a major sovereign mint.
