 By this Request for Tender (RFT), the Mint seeks to

establish a panel of suppliers from whom the Mint will

procure Precious Metal Blanks and who will purchase

from the Mint Unrequired Precious Metal left over from

the Mint's production process. The size of the panel will

ultimately depend upon the number and scope of Tenders

submitted and the Mint's assessment of their value for

money.  The Mint reserves the right to appoint only a sole

Supplier if it decides that such an appointment will provide

best value for money.
