<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 26521303, member: 4626"]These kinds of things seem to be entirely for the PR and prestige of making "the biggest/most valuable coin" or some such. Is it technically/legally a coin? I suppose, but let's be real here: nobody in the general public can own it, it was never intended to circulate, and it would never realistically be used as a monetary instrument. It's a PR stunt, pure and simple, and likely it's going to be melted down as soon as they decide they need the gold more than the PR. I can concede that it technically counts as a coin, but I'm certainly not going to think of it as such.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
