Well to pocket the latest gold coin to be minted in Canada, it would have to be big enough to accommodate something 53 cm in diameter and over 3 cm thick. Your trousers would need to be strong enough to carry 100kg.

...and owning just one of these coins would make you a millionaire.

With a face value of 1 million CAD, the value of the gold is worth well over 2 million USD.

I got a 1oz Krugerand for my birthday once. If I put it on my birthday wish list, maybe I'll get lucky again. :rolleyes:
 
Wow, I'll start looking under the cushions of my couch, I suspect there are a couple under there.

My pockets are very deep, and I have very short arms. :eek:
 
I can see it now.

Bunnings counter.
Coin tendered---Now how would you like your change?
Bullion will be fine.
 
I assume that vending machines wont be re-engineered to fit the new coin in a hurry...
