What it is Filled
A coin minted from a precious metal, usually gold, silver, platinum or palladium, valued mainly for its metal content rather than face value or rarity, issued by mints such as the Royal Canadian Mint s Silver Maple Leaf and Palladium Maple Leaf, the Perth Mint s Australian Lunar series and the Spanish Lince; the registry aliases also include catalogue entries for specific coins such as a London 50 pound and a Bern 1 yuan with database identifiers, which are instances. The model gives general information, not investment advice.
