The Perth Mint has reported that its unique 3-kilo + diamond coin set has indeed sold for A$1.8 Million (~US$1.36 Million). Back in June, we reported the details (link) of this bold marketing concept and wondered whether the coins would sell. According to a press release by the Perth Mint, the coins were sold to an anonymous Asian collector.
“While several discerning parties expressed interest in purchasing the rare treasure, it was sold via Glajz-THG Pte Ltd.”, a Singapore based company specializes in rare gemstones and luxury jewelry.
