I didn't even know there was such a coin until 1 fine day when I phone up 1 of my favorite dealer to ask if he had any cheap gold to sell. He went through his stack and said that there is this 1 coin that he just purchase and because there wasn't any coin box or certificate, he was willing to let it go 5% above spot and this was how I gotten the coin. I think this coin is quite pretty and it is a proof strike. Actually most of Samoa's gold coin are very rare to see in the market and seldom would people want to sell this coin out 😊
