The Perth Mint paired with John Mercanti, the former Chief Engraver of the United States Mint, to create this wonderful series. John Mercanti is known for overseeing countless major coin design initiatives for the U.S. Mint. He retired in 2010 as the 12th Chief Engraver in mint history after working at the U.S. Mint for four different decades.

Customer Reviews

"Amazing service and hospitality from the staff at IDC! Jason was so attentive and patient in our search for our ideal watches. He took us through several options, had us try every watch we were interested in, took our information and continued searching for options. A few hours later, we had our watches on hold and ready for pick up! He located a watch that I LOVE, and a unique piece for my husband. We are grateful to have found our new Jeweler for many pieces to come!"
