Ronaldo Euro coin could be worth $150,000 to collectors

Soccer legend Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly set to be honored in his homeland in a truly unique way. According to reports, Portugal is willing to create a new €7 coin dedicated to the superstar. Becoming the face of a coin is typically reserved for heads of state or royal family members in many nations. Nevertheless, the new coin will feature Ronaldo’s likeness.

Although he has not retired, Ronaldo will likely go down as Portugal’s greatest-ever athlete. After all, the forward has experienced an incredible career since becoming a professional in 2002. He recently reached 900 total career goals between club and country earlier in September.

Despite all of the goals and club success, perhaps the proudest moment of his entire career came when he guided Portugal to triumph at Euro 2016.

Ronaldo coin will explode in value due to various factors

It remains unclear just how many Ronaldo coins are in production, but it will likely not be a massive allotment.

The coins also apparently contain some gold. Precious metals expert Dan Barrett has claimed that the coins could be worth up to $150,000 someday.
