Kitty Mint
No, not the candy type of mint. I’m talking about a 50 euro coin minted from gold and silver. I would like to get your reaction on this guys, and get your friends’ reactions too maybe. Heheh.
Yes, that is what it looks like, and you read right. Kitty has gone on to the world of grown-ups, she has her own mon-ay~ It’s a collector’s item minted by Monnaire de Paris of France, but it IS real currency. So if anyone will be crazy enough to go to a store and buy something with this, it’ll be honored. BUT it’s worth far more than 50 Euros. It’s worth ¥168,000 or around €1,026 (US$1,376). YIKES. Basically if you pay with it, it’s only gonna pay for €50, but if you sell it, you’ll get its real price as a collector’s item. I guess. Harhar.
Sorry for all the numbers heheh. Well, for most of us this is definitely not something we’d get, still pretty interesting though. According to the news, there’ll be a series of these coins, showing Kitty having the time of her life in different places.
I actually have mixed emotions about this. But I’ll read what you guys have to say first.

LOL! Yeah this would definitely be something you can show off
I’m not entirely sure where to get it, probably circulates around the elite auction-people (rofl you get the idea). The girl in the pic is actually an employee for some big money commodity trader company.

€1,026 for €50 is like, wow!?!

Yeah “wow” indeed. The “wow” I have in mind is more on the negative side though..
