1987 Perth Lord Mayor’s Medals Gold-Plated Silver Medallion

The 1987 Perth The Lord Mayor’s Medals 18.2g Gold-Plated .925 Sterling Silver Proof Medallion was struck in 1987 as part of a classic commemorative series honoring Australia’s capital cities ahead of the 1988 Bicentennial. Crafted in 92.5% sterling silver and layered in 24-carat gold plate, this proof medallion celebrates the civic identity and natural scenery of Western Australia’s capital.

The obverse features the official City of Perth Coat of Arms, supported by two black swans with wings outstretched and featuring the municipal Latin motto Floreat (“Let it flourish”). Directly beneath the motto scroll and above the Perth inscription, the small ‘F’ mint mark indicates its manufacture by The Franklin Mint. The reverse displays a panoramic vista of the Perth city skyline overlooking Kings Park and the Swan River foreground.

Featuring brilliant mirror-polished background fields set against frosted raised design details, this proof piece is ideal for collectors of Australian municipal history, state capital commemoratives, and gold-plated silver medallions. Galaxy Coins offers this piece with full confidence in its precious metal purity and historic craftsmanship.
