Does anyone have this 2003 5 Lati gold coin? What is the social status of this gold coin in Latvia? I want to buy this but I don’t have enough information. I want to hear the owner’s thoughts.

   What you mean exactly?

   We associate it with the original silver 5lati from 1929, barely anyone knows that a gold version exists https://eurogold.lv/lv/search/term/5+lati/

3. Why do you want to buy it if you have no information?

   Edit: Oh, it’s THAT guy again.

4. I didn’t know a 5 Lati coin existed, I’d assume its the same for most Latvians. That about sums up the social status of the coin.

5. You can check information on it in on Bank of Latvia site https://monetas.bank.lv/monetas/pieclatnieks

   Comemorative coins are made with the explict purpose to sell them as collector item for prices above their nominal value, although they technically could have been used as payment at nominal value before adoption of euro.
