Does anyone have a "Call of the Wildlife" $CAD 125 coin? 'Only' 500 grams of silver.  |

NumisEd, you piqued my curiosity. From 2016: Quote:
The largest silver coin in the world --The Silver Ivory Coast Elephant --weighing an astounding 55 kgs or 120 pounds is now available. The coin measures 650 mm (two feet) in diameter roughly the size of a manhole cover and is made of .999 fine silver. https://firstcoincompany.com/S/ivor...kilo-1750-ozInordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Hmmmm. There are about 26 million people in Australia, so I suppose that you could claim 1000000 / 26000000 of it.

No it's owned by W.A., not Australia, so we only have 2.7 million people.

I stand corrected. So you can claim 1/2.7 g. = 0.37 g. You'll need a coin weighing 0.00083 grams to top my 445.  Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

I am not sure you can call this thing a 'coin'. More like a manhole cover.  |

It's easy if you have your coins on Numista.

I can beat 445. But I choose not to. Let's move on

 I'm the wiener! It will take a day to formulate a new challenge, so bear with me. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Post a coin from the smallest population country you have. I'll start with the Vatican (Vatican City population = 800). Include a reference to document your claim. Lowest documented population wins. I foresee much argument and discussion!  Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures
