<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1913459, member: 19065&quot;]Just to be clear...</p><p><br /></p><p>For the Mercanti designed 2014 Wedge Tail Eagle coins, Perth Mint WAS NOT shipping coins direct to customers in the United States. They did ship coins direct to other international locations, but not to the U.S. When attempting to order, if your shipping and/or billing addresses were in the U.S., the transaction could not be completed. The only dealer in the U.S. for this release was GovMint.com and they didn&#039;t sell all varieties of this coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some third party sellers IN Australia did have the various varieties of the coins for international delivery, but they sold out real fast. <a href="http://www.coinclub.com.au/products/2014-Australian-Wedge%252dTailed-Eagle-1oz-Silver-Proof-High-Relief-Coin.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinclub.com.au/products/2014-Australian-Wedge%252dTailed-Eagle-1oz-Silver-Proof-High-Relief-Coin.html" rel="nofollow"><b>CoinClub Australia</b></a> was one such dealer who had them. That left eBay.com.au, for one, and prices rose swiftly as is common with hot new releases.</p><p><br /></p><p>As TC noted, some people in the US piggyback on orders to get bullion from Australia, but do note that, The Perth Mint has two sites. One is for collectible coins: <b><a href="http://www.perthmint.com.au/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.perthmint.com.au/" rel="nofollow">Perth Mint Australia</a></b> and another one is for bullion sales: <b><a href="http://www.perthmintbullion.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.perthmintbullion.com/" rel="nofollow">Perth Mint Bullion</a>. </b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
