“The coin weighs just 1/500th of an ounce”

That’s about 3 dollars worth of gold, being sold for over $200. I suppose that’s not how collectors think, though.

Things like this are generally bad to collect. Everyone will be in mint condition and no one is going to throw away the packaging and paperwork. It is also why modern commemorative coins (post 1982) are bad investments.

Don’t sneeze or you’ll never find it!

As for why mint them? It is Swiss gold and their mint will sell a mint of them at a fine profit, but not to me!

Which reminds me.

We need to get rid of pennies, nickels, and dimes.

The silliness of leadership in the modern West is amazing. Next will be a coin of some one “’mooning” the viewer.
