Good news, the Royal Mint has just unveiled the world’s first ever solid gold payment card! Oh my, that literally made me laugh out loud Seriously, who would want to carry one of these around in your wallet or purse. Apart from looking like a knob at the counter whilst whipping one of these out to pay with, it would need polishing after every single time you use the darn thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
