ICONIC CARNIVAL RIDE

First introduced at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago by civil engineer George Washington Gale Ferris Jr., the Ferris wheel captivated audiences with its engineering brilliance and breathtaking views. The motive behind its creation was intended to rival the Eiffel Tower in terms of architectural marvel and international appeal. Today, from fairs and carnivals to amusement parks across the globe, the Ferris wheel continues to embody the nostalgia, wonder and spirit of these cherished events.

ROTATING FERRIS WHEEL INSERT

The coin’s reverse portrays an array of traditional carnival motifs. Arranged in a clockwise pattern from the top is a night sky dotted with stars, clouds, and suspended fairy lights. The scene depicts coloured hot air balloons, a jovial merry-go-round, a soaring flying swing, children playing, carnival tents, balloons, and an exhilarating rollercoaster ride. Also included in the design is the 2025 year-date, surrounded by coloured fireworks, and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark. The coin’s centre features a special rotating Ferris wheel insert adorned with multi-coloured Swarovski crystals and 24-carat gold plating on an alloy base.

ABOUT THE PERTH MINT

The Perth Mint opened in 1899 as the British Royal Mint's 3rd branch in Australia. The historical Hay Street location handled gold refining until moving to a modern facility in April 1990. Ownership of the mint was transferred to the Government of Western Australia in July of 1970. Under an agreement with the Commonwealth Treasury, they were empowered to mint and market gold, silver, and platinum as Australian legal tender to investors and collectors worldwide. Today, they are amongst the elite world mints whose pure gold, silver, and platinum items are trusted without question. Items such as the Australian Nugget, Silver Coin Series (Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, and Platypus to name a few), as well as the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Coin Series are extensively sought after by bullion investors worldwide.
