[QUOTE="Aidan Work, post: 226159, member: 1824"]Ben,while a medal-coin is regarded as being legal tender,it is not intended for use in commerce.For example,you cannot just go into a shop in Canada & spend a silver or gold Maple Leaf,or go into a shop in South Africa & spend a gold or silver Krugerrand. The intrinsic value often outweighs the face value,& besides,they're offered to collectors at a price massively over the face value. Aidan.[/QUOTE]
