A few weeks ago, my husband and I attended the International Living Bootcamp in Atlanta. What an inspiring time of learning about living, working, and retiring overseas! We learned about Panama, Ecuador, Portugal, Spain, Italy, and many other locations with thriving expat communities, lower costs of living, and opportunities to experience other cultures.
One of the vendors at the event offered opportunities to invest in gold and silver coins. As a promotion, they gave out this commemorative coin in honor of Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee. I thought that some of you might like to see it.

I used my printer’s scanner to grab this image; the text is blurry, but you can see the coin well.
Here’s another image, this one taken with my husband’s phone camera. Not so good—you can see the text, but the coin looks off, which is why I ran it through the scanner.

Hello, I also saw this coin. I checked the coin collection website and didn’t find this coin. However, there are many shopping websites selling it. Is this coin a fake? If you see my message, please tell me.
Hi, Jack. I have no idea if it’s “fake” or not, but I really don’t care. I’m just a postcard collector pleased to have another new thing to share on the blog 🙂
