New Baby Coin Gifts at Mint Coin Shop: Tooth Fairy Kits to Silver Proof Keepsakes
The baby range at Mint Coin Shop spans three price points and occasions: Tooth Fairy coin kits for young kids, the Royal Australian Mint's Aussie Bubs coins for newborns, and Perth Mint silver proof coloured coins for a more premium baby gift.
Tooth Fairy coins and kits
The Royal Australian Mint's Tooth Fairy releases are built for a specific childhood moment rather than birth itself. The 2025 and 2026 Tooth Fairy Uncirculated Coin and Kit sell for $30 each, while a simpler 2026 Tooth Fairy Uncirculated Coin in Card is $20. The kit format includes extra presentation pieces beyond the coin, aimed at making a first lost tooth feel like an event.
Aussie Bubs newborn coins
Aussie Bubs is the Royal Australian Mint's dedicated newborn range. The $5 1oz fine silver proof coin is $190 and suits a standalone gift, while the Aussie Bubs Six Coin Uncirculated Baby Year Set, at $55, gives a fuller keepsake at a lower price than the single silver proof piece.
Perth Mint silver proof baby coins
Perth Mint's baby releases sit at a similar premium price point to Aussie Bubs' silver proof coin. The Baby Horse 2026 1/2oz Silver Proof Coloured Coin and the Newborn Baby 2026 1/2oz Silver Proof Coloured Coin are both $139, with a coloured proof finish that's a step up from the Royal Australian Mint's uncirculated options.
A licensed option for slightly older toddlers
The Peppa Pig 2026 Stamp and Coin Cover, at $37, sits apart from the newborn-specific pieces. It pairs a coin with an Australia Post stamp cover and suits a toddler old enough to recognise the character, rather than a gift for the birth itself.
Choosing by budget and occasion
A $20 Tooth Fairy card suits a young child losing their first tooth. The $55 Aussie Bubs year set works well as an affordable birth gift. A $139 Perth Mint or Aussie Bubs silver proof coin suits a gift meant to be kept and displayed rather than handled. Matching the coin to the occasion, tooth fairy versus newborn versus toddler, matters more than picking by price alone.
FAQ
What's the difference between the Aussie Bubs coin and the year set?
The single coin is a 1oz fine silver proof piece at $190. The year set is six uncirculated coins for $55, a lower-cost alternative.
Is the Tooth Fairy coin meant for newborns?
No. It's built around the tooth fairy tradition, aimed at school-age kids losing their first tooth rather than babies.
Why are the Perth Mint baby coins more expensive than the Royal Australian Mint options?
They're silver proof coloured coins rather than uncirculated base metal pieces, which means a higher finish and more precious metal content.
