A well-recognised global toy, Rubik’s ® Cube is fun for the whole family. Each face of a Rubik’s ® Cube comprises nine coloured squares. At the start of the puzzle, the squares are arranged so that each face is uniformly coloured – yellow, white, blue, green, orange, or red. An internal pivot mechanism, which allows each face to be twisted or turned independently, is used to scramble the 54 coloured squares, which must then be returned to their original configuration to complete the puzzle.

Inspiring a global craze with puzzlers everywhere keen to have a go, those who took it most seriously studied techniques and strategies to help solve the Rubik’s ® Cube as quickly as possible. As of July 2023, the world record of solving a 3×3 cube had been set to stand at a remarkable 3.13 seconds.

The Perth Mint is pleased to present this unique Rubik’s™ Cube collectable coin. Encased in the coin’s centre is a rotating 24-carat gold-plated representative model of a Rubik’s ® Cube. Struck by The Perth Mint from 2oz of 99.99% pure silver, the coin is issued as legal tender under the authority of the Government of Tuvalu.

The Perth Mint will release no more than 3,000 of the Rubik’s™ Cube 50th Anniversary 2024 2oz Silver Antiqued Coloured Coin.

The coin’s reverse portrays the official RUBIK’S™ 50 YEARS™ coloured logo, which appears on an antiqued pattern of cubes. Also included in the design are coloured images of the puzzle in play, the inscription ‘TWIST, TURN, SOLVE’, and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.

The obverse features the Jody Clark effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, which appears on a similar antiqued pattern. Also included are the coin’s weight, purity, monetary denomination, and 2024 year-date.

Each coin is presented in a special Rubik’s™ Cube one-of-a kind case within a themed shipper and accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity.
