The World's Smallest Gold Coin

Bank of Croatia takes the title of world’s smallest gold coin from the Swiss Mint with a swansong issue smaller than a politician’s brain !

At just 0.05 grams, it weighs a tenth of a minigold coin, and is a microscopic 1/622nd of a troy ounce. The diameter of just 1.99 mm.

Don't worry about losing it because of its size. At the current spot price of gold, the melt value of the coin is only £2.35 !! 😊

Imagine buying a tube of them

I still think that a politician’s brain is smaller!

What capsule fits these and would NGC be able to slab them 😆

I did think about stacking two hundred of these coins (200 x 0.05g = 10g) but damn, the mintage is only 100 ! 😆

Not sure I like anything smaller than a half Sovereign normally, but this 1/20th 1994 Panda came with a 5 coin set, and is the smallest I have (at about 1.55g). Having said that I’m OK with 1/4 oz Brits or QBs. How much is a microscope to see the coin above?!! 😃

Half sovs are such a nice size for their weight, ducats too, 20mm. 

3g pandas are 18mm, compared to 16-16.5mm 1/10oz coins.
