TOKYO: Japan's Finance Ministry said it will issue commemorative 10,000 yen (US$70) gold coins for the upcoming 2025 World Expo in Osaka, with a price tag of 268,000 yen ($1863) each amid the soaring cost of the precious metal. The third installment of specially minted coins for the event also includes 1,000 yen silver coins, to be sold for 15,200 yen each, and 500 yen coins. Japan Mint, responsible for producing and circulating the coins of Japan, plans to sell 1,000 limited sets that include all five coins from the three installments for 344,000 yen, available to order from next March. If the orders surpass the number of planned sets, it will hold a lottery. Source: Emirates News Agency
