1609 Spanish coin goes up for auction, expected to break all records

A gold coin minted in 1609 for King Philip III of Spain is set to go up for auction in Switzerland, where it is expected to break records and become the most valuable coin in Europe.

The unique item, weighing 339 grams, has a starting price of 2 million Swiss francs ($2.48 million), Geneva-based auction house Numismatica Genevensis SA announced.

"The coin will undoubtedly break the record for the most expensive European coin of all time ," said the auction house's director, Frank Baldacci.

The current record price for a European coin is a 100 ducat coin that once belonged to Ferdinand III of Habsburg, which sold for 1.95 million Swiss francs ($2.42 million). /CNA
