James Bond 25 Coin Series from the Perth Mint

The Perth Mint has unveiled a new James Bond 1/2 Oz Silver Proof 25 Coin Collector Series.

Each month, from April 2021 until March 2022, the Perth Mint will release two new coloured 1/2oz silver proof coins featuring colour illustrations of iconic James Bond film posters, making up a limited edition set of 25 coins.

The series celebrates the James Bond films, beginning with 1962’s Dr. No and ending with 2021’s No Time To Die. Each unique coloured design, depicts images from the original film posters, and is struck by the Perth Mint from 1/2oz of 99.99% pure silver in a limited mintage of 12,007 per design.

With demand expected to be high, the Perth Mint and 007 Store are offering an exclusive Bond Coin Collectors Subscription Service, which allows buyers to purchase the series at a special collectors rate, with a range of extra benefits, including collectors discount price, two complimentary presentation folders, and early access to a bonus 0.5g Bond Gold Coin at a 20% discount.

The reverse of each coin depicts colour washed elements from the film’s official movie poster. Designs also include the iconic gun barrel graphic from the franchise’s signature opening sequence, the famous 007 gun logo and the official movie logo. The reverse of each coin bears the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, as well as the coin’s weight, purity, monetary denomination and 2021 year-date.

Subscribers will receive two custom designed Bond-themed collection folders to store, display and protect their James Bond Official 25-Coin Collection.

Each coin comes in a Perspex capsule for mounting within its Collection folder. Each coin is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity which can also be stored inside the folder. Coins are delivered to subscribers in disposable packets.

Subscribers will be offered a chance to purchase an exclusive 007 James Bond 2021 0.5g Gold Coin struck from 0.5g of 99.99% pure gold. Portraying the iconic 007 gun logo, this bonus coin fits in folder I, representing a stylish finishing touch to the Collection.
