Gold and Crystal Coins Celebrate the Royal Visit to Canada

Gold and Crystal Coins Celebrate the Royal Visit to Canada (3)

The visit of the Duchess and Duke of Cambridge  to Canada is being celebrated in a very special way: the country has issued 22-karat gold coins with the couple’s portraits impressed on them. Each $200 coin is also adorned with a white crystal. Diehard fans of the royal couple and coin collectors around the world can purchase these special items from the mint, but they will have to pay a little more than $200 for the small pieces of gold: each coin costs $1,199. That of course should be no problem for anyone who truly wants to complete their Prince William and Kate Middleton memorabilia collection.
