OPALPLUS HAS BEEN PURCHASER OF PERTH MINT COINS SINCE EARLY 1980s

IN AUGUST 2007 WE WERE APPROVED AS AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR PERTH MINT AUSTRALIA .

COINSPLUS NOW SPECILAIZES IN COINS

Following a deadly engagement with the German raider HSK Kormoran November 1941, the famous Royal Australian Navy cruiser HMAS Sydney II was lost with 645 officers and crew in the Indian Ocean. Her fate proved baffling until the Finding Sydney Foundation announced on 16 March 2008 that it had located the wreck approximately 207km off the Western Australian coast.

Proof Quality 99.9% Pure Silver

The Perth Mint marks the historic discovery of HMAS Sydney II with this superb commemorative coin struck from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver in proof quality.

Reverse Depicting HMAS Sydney II

The coin’s reverse depicts HMAS Sydney II, a 6,830 tons modified Leander class cruiser with an illustrious battle record. The ship’s image is accompanied by the inscription HMAS SYDNEY II 19 NOVEMBER 1941 ~ 16 MARCH 2008, which highlights the 67 years she lay undiscovered on the seabed, and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.

Australian Legal Tender

Befitting HMAS Sydney II’s enormous historical and cultural significance, the coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965. The Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the 2008 year-date appear on the coin’s obverse.

Extremely Limited Mintage

The Perth Mint will strike no more than 7,500 of these coins, of which just 5,000 will be released individually. The remaining 2,500 are available in a stunning Coin, Medallion and Badge Set (see separate entry).

Presentation Display Case

Individual coins are housed in a blue display case and magnificently illustrated shipper.

Numbered Certificate of Authenticity

Each coin is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.

Why are users outbidding themselves?

When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.

When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.

Audit

The Treasure Sheriff program allows our members to request an audit on any product, which is completed by an independent Fashionista who assesses the accuracy of the item description and pictures.
