About the coin: this 1000 Tugrik gold coin was issued by Mongolia in 2008 to honor the Great Wall of China, one of the most famous architectural and defensive structures in human history. The wall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was built and expanded over more than two millennia and stretches for more than 21,000 kilometers including all branches. Struck from .9999 fine gold, the coin is popular among both collectors and investors.
