This massive coin of the finest, purest gold will be offered by Vienna-based auctioneer Dorotheum on June 25. It weighs around 220 (100 kilos) pounds and is made from the purest 999.99/1000 gold. The coin features the picture of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and three maple leaves (the national symbol of Canada) on the other. The starting price for the bidding of this large coin will be determined by the daily gold rate.
