    It would be nice if they put a Sac or something (a one ouncer philharmonic?) in the box to illustrate the size. The coin is 74 mm (~ 3 inches) in diameter, don't know the thickness. However, knowing the density of gold, the mass, and diameter, I calculate the thickness to be .75 cm. That is 0.3 inches thick! A big one!

    If those large formats are as thin as the 1 oz. coins, they probably look like pancakes sitting there. image

    Hmm...why does it have 100,000 Euros face, and not 15,000 or so? Maybe a government prediction for POG soon to come? That's what, 5000 Euro/ounce, or $7,100USD?

    Hmm...

    HUH . . . a 1000oz coin with face value of 100,000 euros would be 100 euro per oz . . . wouldn't it ? ? ? imageimage
