The US Mint released commemorative coins honoring abolitionist Harriet Tubman Thursday.

The coins include $5 gold coins, $1 silver coins and half-dollar coins that commemorate the bicentennial of her birth. This is the first time the US Mint has honored Tubman with coins, according to the agency.

    Highly unlikely. Those coins are over $700 to purchase from the mint. They are real gold. The face value is $5 but it’s literally worth its weight in gold.

    Then again I’m sure someone will spend it at face value at some point, and you’re probably right it will likely be at a Walmart. 🙄
