100 Kilogram Gold Coin Video......

Perhaps this was posted awhile ago, but I find it fascinating.

It's a 7 minute video showing the Canadian Royal Mint producing the $1,000.000 face value 100kilogram Gold Coin.

One thing I noticed was all the 'coin doctoring' going on after it was cast.

    Damn you Weiss! At first I thought you somehow hijacked my post and made it yours. Then I realized the OP had put this in 2 seperate forums.

    it never gets old seeing that coin. First time I've seen that video. thanks

    I think I'll stick to my 1oz 99.999%maple leaf. Much easier to store and has a better chance of getting slabbed
