<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 107463, member: 39&quot;]The Austrian Mint issues bullion gold coins (one ounce, half ounce ... the usual &quot;assortment&quot;) every year. In 2004 it made 15 of those &quot;giants&quot;: 1000 oz each which is more than 30 kg, diameter 37 cm.</p><p><a href="http://img.pte.at/photo_db/thumbnails/thumb12608.gif" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://img.pte.at/photo_db/thumbnails/thumb12608.gif" rel="nofollow">http://img.pte.at/photo_db/thumbnails/thumb12608.gif</a></p><p><br /></p><p>One of them will be shown at the World Money Fair next month. And visitors can have pictures (&quot;Me and Big Phil&quot;) taken ... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>As for those privately issued &quot;ecu&quot; and &quot;euro&quot; pieces, well, there are many of those, with all sorts of country/territory names on them. Very few (and certainly none from the UK) were actually government issued. Especially those pseudo-euros are just medals - nicely designed in some cases, but they do not have anything to do with the euro.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
