amazing.

Must be low K gold at that value. If it was .999 it would be worth close to 3 mill+, even so I wouldn't want to play 2 up with a couple of those suckers.

Thanks Gollstar, What a big pocket you would need for that sucker. Interesting that it is a 1 million $ coin and yet as stated in the article it's worth of material out values the coin's face value.
Sold at auction for $2.6Million
And not the only one in existance.!!

im pritty sure that sum is in british pounds which would make it 4.83 million dollars over here!!!
Fair sum isnt it!

Face value means the day it was made it was worth 1 mill can $'s in gold and is now worth 4 times as much, the price in the artical is crearly in pounds and ill say nearly 3 mill in pounds is nearly 6 mill in aud which is nothing to sneaze at.
