How heavy was it? Did you get a picture of the other side? Where did you even find that?

Of course a Brit would expect you to know how much your currency weighs. It’s dollars not pounds ya muppet.

If it’s 1oz… That’s gold

It might be 2026 but we can’t all go walking around with an oz on us all the time. The scales of justice ain’t that light you know what I’m sayin?

Are you sure it isn’t just a patina on a silver one?
Show threadLemmyoutofhereMar 6
Just look at the text on the coin. It only matches the gold version.

How bout a trillion-dollar coin?
More Money Less Problems

A trillion dollar platinum coin sends us down a wormhole, re-examining a classic question: why can’t we just print more money?

The 2013 $50 Queen’s Coronation coin is 5 ounces of 99.99% silver. And since silver is around 80–90 USD per ounce recently, the metal value alone would be on the order of a few hundred U.S. dollars, plus any collector premium.

Tl;Dr - it’s worth more than $50

Show threadLemmyoutofhereMar 6

That’s not the coronation coin. This is the gold coin, 1 oz of gold. Worth over $5000 USD.

I guess I assumed a person would not be carrying around $5k in a coin and figured it was the silver one.

Damn, why can’t I find 5 grand laying on the ground….

I bought a few games on humble bundle with the Bitcoin I mined with an old laptop… Those are now probably the most expensive games I’ve ever bought, and I don’t know if I ever played any of them. At least the people who bought pizzas early on got something to eat.
Show threadbraxMar 6
Those were important though. They showed that there was an actual use-case for the coins. These days they seem completely worthless because all people do is horde them. I have no idea why there’s any value in crypto since it doesn’t seem like you can actually buy anything with it.

In the show, How I Met Your Mother, Barney Stinson wins a $50 bet against Marshall that he could run the New York marathon without training.

When he receives the $50 bill he makes a remark on the lines of “They don’t make this in a coin yet?”

I always thought it was a jab on him being rich

But now that I know there’s a $50 coin in Canada. It seems like he is raging on the US for not keeping up with Canada without knowing. Barney rags on Canada often because Robin is from Canada and he portrays “a true US patriot”.

Interesting
