Two of Australia's Most Trusted Bullion Dealers
ABC Bullion and the Perth Mint are two of the best-known names in Australian precious metals. Both sell gold and silver bars and coins online and have been in the bullion business for decades.
ABC Bullion is a Sydney-based dealer and refiner whose ABC-branded cast bars are among the most traded bullion products in Australia. It sells its own bars and coins alongside products from other mints, and lists a buyback price for each product in its online shop.
The Perth Mint is Australia's official bullion mint, owned by the Government of Western Australia and operating since 1899. It produces the Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala and Lunar series and sells them through its own shop as well as through dealers.
Their prices for comparable products can differ by tens of dollars on a one-ounce coin and by hundreds on larger gold bars. The tables above show today's figures, checked throughout the day.
How Their Product Ranges Compare
Both dealers offer gold and silver bars and coins, but the ranges differ.
ABC Bullion focuses on its own brand: cast and minted gold and silver bars, small gram-size minted tablets, and ABC coins such as the Southern Cross, the ABC Lunar series and Untamed Landscapes. It also stocks coins from other mints, including some Perth Mint coins.
The Perth Mint focuses on its own coin programmes, such as the Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, Swan and Lunar series, alongside Perth Mint minted and cast bars.
Because each mostly sells its own brand, only a handful of products are sold by both. That is why the second table compares the cheapest product of the same metal, type and weight at each dealer, for example a one-ounce gold cast bar from ABC against one from the Perth Mint. Which dealer is cheaper changes with the product and the day, so check the live tables rather than a rule of thumb.
Buyback Prices: Which Dealer Pays More When You Sell?
Buyback prices, what a dealer pays when you sell back to them, matter as much as buy prices. The gap between the two is your real cost of holding bullion.
ABC Bullion lists a buyback price for each product in its online shop, including for some coins from other mints. You can compare these on our sell pages.
The Perth Mint explains on its website how to sell bullion to it, but its online shop does not list buyback prices, so we cannot show them here. Ask the mint for a quote before you sell.
Whichever dealer you sell to, get a written quote first: buyback prices move with the spot price during the day.
Physical Locations and In-Person Service
If you prefer to buy or sell in person rather than online, both have physical locations.
ABC Bullion has offices in several states. The Perth Mint runs a shop and exhibition in East Perth.
Addresses, opening hours and whether you need an appointment change over time, so check each dealer's website before you visit.
Which Dealer Should You Choose?
For most buyers the practical answer is to buy from whichever is cheaper on the day for the product you want. Brand matters less than many think for resale: both ABC and Perth Mint bars and coins are widely recognised by Australian dealers.
ABC Bullion may suit you if:
- you want ABC-branded cast bars or gram-size tablets
- you want a published buyback price before you buy
The Perth Mint may suit you if:
- you want its own coins, such as the Kangaroo or Lunar series, directly from the mint
- you value buying from a government-owned mint
The tables above remove the guesswork: check today's prices and buy from whoever is cheaper for the product you want.
Frequently asked questions
Is ABC Bullion or Perth Mint cheaper?
It depends on the product and the day. Because each mostly sells its own brand, compare the cheapest product of the same metal, type and weight in the second table above; the first table lists the few products both sell. Prices are checked throughout the day.
Is Perth Mint government-owned?
Yes. The Perth Mint is owned by the Government of Western Australia and has been in operation since 1899. It is one of the most trusted precious metals institutions in the world and is a wholly owned state government enterprise.
Do both dealers offer storage programs?
Yes. Both offer storage for bullion bought from them. Storage types, fees and terms differ and change over time, so check each dealer's website for current conditions.
Can I sell Perth Mint products to ABC Bullion and vice versa?
Generally yes. ABC Bullion lists buyback prices in its shop, including for some Perth Mint coins. The Perth Mint also buys bullion, but does not publish buyback prices online. Always get a quote before selling.
