I'd love to see the look in the slabbing room if that pup was ever submitted.  |

I'm sure it wont take the US mint to produce one twice as big.......

Yeah, knowing our huge sizes for everything we'd probably make a pure gold coin the size of a table.

I am $999,900 short of getting one. It will make a very great counter top.

It looks like I have one more dream coin to add to the list.

Same here- although it actually costs closer to 2 million to produce each one, and the gold value is pretty high too- 100 kilos of it! |

Overkill for me. No interest.

I thought it is ONLY 1 million. I need to work five more jobs since I really want one. LOL Someone should make a wood copy of it. It will make a very great coffee table top. Edited by monster

I do beleive it is over 2.5 million in gold alone- 100 kilos is a LOT. If I am not mistaken, this now qualifies as the most valuble canadian coin- knocking off the 1911 dollar, valued at 1.2 million- with one silver example to be owned privately. Andrew |

Very interesting I'll admit. I heard about it on the radio today.
However, and I guess it depends on definition, I don't see it as a "coin.

If it was made like the 31.1 kg Philharmoniker was made then it is not a coin but a work of art because it was laser sculpted and not struck . Maybe somebody will do one now like a money stone of Easter Island  |

Maybe I'm an old fuddy duddy but I find this one of the most rediculous things modern man has come up with. Collecting coins is one thing, but how can this be considered a coin? What can possibly be done with it? I've really lost a lot of respect for Canada, and for any other country that may follow suit. A giant step backward to when our forefathers worshiped idols. That is really what this is, an idol.
