It’s worth about thirty six real dollars so I bought a couple pizzas with it.

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

    Better yet, 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….
