The instrument now covers numerous fractional sizes, multiple precious metals (gold, silver, platinum) at different fineness levels, and many highly specific reverse designs (including colour-washed backgrounds and year inscriptions). That expansion moves the instrument beyond a simple technical standard for a few coins to a broad, itemised programme authorising a large and continuing range of Perth Mint products (see Schedule 1). The growth is visible in the number of items and the variety of compositions and designs added by amendment (see Note: Table of Instruments / Schedule 1)."},"complexity_factors":["Very long Schedule 1 listing (over 90 separately numbered \"Items\" for different coin designs and metals).","Multiple metals and fineness levels across items (e.g. silver 99.9%, gold 99.99%, platinum 99.95%).","Many distinct weight/tolerance pairs (fractions of an ounce, gram weights with ± tolerances) — frequent numeric precision.","Large variety of denominations and fractional sizes (e.g. $1, $5, $15, $50, $200) and many year/version-specific designs.","Extensive, item-specific reverse-design descriptions (textual artistic specifications, colour-wash references, inscriptions and mint marks) increasing interpretive detail.","Amendments history and cross-references in the notes (compilation shows an amendment which altered Schedule 1).","Repetition with small variants (same denomination but different composition or design by Item) raising risk of confusion or misidentification.","Operational compliance requirements (measurement, assay, marking) implied though not specified as procedures, increasing indirect complexity."],"plain_english_summary":"**What this instrument does (mechanically)**\n\n- It is a legal determination made under subsection 13A(1) of the Currency Act 1965 that lists and fixes the technical specifications of coins that may be issued by the Perth Mint. (See section 3 and Schedule 1.)\n- The determination sets, for each listed coin, the denomination (face value), the metal composition, the standard weight and allowable variation, maximum diameter and thickness, shape and edge treatment, and the exact obverse and reverse designs. Those specifications are collected in Schedule 1.\n- It also says the specifications in Schedule 1 do not change any other coin-specification determination (section 4).\n\n**Who this affects**\n\n- Perth Mint: required to manufacture coins to the listed technical and design specifications if they are to be recognised under this determination (Schedule 1).\n- Collectors, dealers and investors in bullion/commemorative coins: the determination defines the official characteristics (metal fineness, weight, markings and year inscriptions) that market participants use to identify, value and trade these coins.\n- Coin-handling businesses (banks, refiners, assay offices, retailers) and testing labs: these actors rely on the stated tolerances and markings to verify authenticity and grade.\n- Consumers who might receive such coins as legal tender or as merchandise: the document records the official face values and inscriptions, but many of the coins are bullion/commemoratives whose intrinsic metal value typically exceeds the face value.\n\n**Why it matters (policy purpose-claims, then practical tests)**\n\n- Official purpose claimed: to specify the physical and design standards for Perth Mint coins authorised under the Currency Act so they may be issued and recognised as currency (section 3; Schedule 1).\n\n- Practical effects, costs and incentives:\n - Who decides and who pays: the Treasurer (through the statutory power) decides the specifications; the Perth Mint (as the manufacturer) bears production cost and operational compliance costs for meeting the stated metal, weight and design standards. Buyers of bullion/commemorative coins typically pay market or premium prices that reflect metal content, design and minting costs.\n - Concentrated benefits / revenue: the specification enables the Perth Mint to issue defined bullion and commemorative coins, a commercial activity that generates concentrated revenue for the mint and related dealers.\n - Diffuse costs: there is little direct fiscal cost signalled in the determination itself; however, there are resource and regulatory costs for verification and for any government oversight necessary to ensure compliance with the specifications.\n - Incentive effects: setting precise metal fineness and weights creates confidence for investors and collectors (facilitates trade and secondary-market pricing). It also creates an incentive for the mint to design and market a steady flow of commemoratives and bullion products.\n - Substitution and market effects: many listed coins are bullion or commemorative (high metal fineness, fractional gold/platinum sizes). Those products are more likely to be bought and held as investments or collectibles rather than used as day-to-day circulating money; that shifts private behaviour toward purchasing mint products rather than using them for everyday payments.\n - Implementation and compliance risk: enforcement is operational — the Perth Mint and any testing bodies must measure metal fineness, weight tolerances and design elements. The detailed list reduces discretionary uncertainty but increases the operational compliance burden on the mint (quality control, assay reporting).\n\n**Concrete mechanics to note**\n\n- The determination specifies many individual coin items (see Schedule 1). Examples: $1 coins in silver (99.9% Ag) with 31.635 g ±0.500 g; $50 gold coins in 99.99% gold at 15.594 g ±0.040 g; $15 gold fractional coins; $50 platinum coins at 99.95% Pt and specified weights; and a high-value $200 gold coin with detailed obverse/reverse layouts (Item 95).\n- Obverse design is consistently an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II with monogram ‘IRB’ and specified inscriptions; reverse designs are individually specified (animals, commemorative scenes, years, mint marks such as ‘P’), sometimes with colour-washed backgrounds and year text (all set out in Schedule 1).\n\n**Where to look in the instrument**\n\n- Legal authority and scope: section 3 and section 4.\n- The full technical and design specifications: Schedule 1 (many numbered Items setting metal, weight, dimensions and design per coin).\n\n"}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/currency-perth-mint-determination-2008-no-2","history":"/api/acts/currency-perth-mint-determination-2008-no-2/history","analysis":"/api/acts/currency-perth-mint-determination-2008-no-2/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/currency-perth-mint-determination-2008-no-2/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/currency-perth-mint-determination-2008-no-2/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/currency-perth-mint-determination-2008-no-2/documents"}}
