Royal Australian Mint
Overview
The Royal Australian Mint is a multi-tourism award-winning cultural attraction, a working factory and Commonwealth Heritage Site.
The Mint has reopened after extensive renovations to reveal a stunning new museum, shop and delicious café. Visit today and explore the innovative displays, interactives and never-before-seen objects, or relax with a coffee while you mint your own coin. Free parking, entry and tours.
As a world-class Mint and a global leader in the mint industry, the Mint produces circulating coins for Australia and other countries; collectible and investment coins; and custom-made medals, medallions and tokens.
The images on each Australian coin produced by the Mint are conversation starters and history markers; statements on "who we are and where we have come from".
