    Ok, so there is no gauge to know how big the box is. It is definitely not from Tiffanys. So....... Peace Roy

    It looks like a little gold coin box. The kind you used to be able to get at the bank. It was a common practice to hand out gold coins for Christmas once upon a time.

    Green is my favorite color.... and gold looks really good setting on a green background - that would be a combination of two favorite things...Now, if you set a glass of Cabernet next to it... WOWZERS!!! A sight to behold indeed..... ;) Cheers, RickO

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    These seem to be rather scarce. I rarely see them available for sale, and only 3 have been graded (by PCGS, none by NGC). I wonder if the full mintage of 2500 pieces were actually completed.

    Your curiosity wont kill a cat ;) but rather will benefit all with your findings <3
