The world's most expensive gold coin ever to come to auction went on display at Goldsmiths' Hall in London on 3 and 4 March this year.
The 1933 Double Eagle is a legend in coin collecting circles. It is possibly the most valuable ounce of gold in the world, inspiring the passions of kings, presidents, collectors, and thieves. In 2002, a 1933 Double Eagle sold for 7.6 million dollars, making it the most expensive gold coin in the world to come to auction up to that time. The actual coin which went on display in London has never come to auction and is one of a handful of 1933 Double Eagles known in the world.
