    Good grief! I saw that and was like, whoa. Who the HECK would be able to afford a $1 mil coin? Imagine the insurance premium to keep it in a safe.

    Would coins like this keep its premium, more importantly will it go up.

    In my eyes, unless it was valued as an work of art which I can't see how you will get the premium back?

    What would be the value of the diamond be?

    Quite an attractive coin.
    I have never owned (and never expect to) a kilo gold coin but what jumps out at me is how easily $55000 can sit in the palm of your hand.
