Major gold companies mull global millennium coin

LONDON, March 21 (Reuters) - The world's biggest gold mining companies are
planning to produce a millennium coin that could absorb more than 1,000 tonnes of
gold, Britain's Sunday Telegraph newspaper said.

The project is being led by Canada's Barrick Gold (ABX.TO - news) but would be
coordinated from the London headquarters of Swiss Bank Corporation, the Telegraph
said.

The companies hope that the planned coin would mop up surplus gold supplies and lift
the gold market out of the doldrums.

The Telegraph said the prices for different-sized coins would be linked to the prevailing
gold price. The most popular size was expected to be the one-ounce coin, which at
current values would cost
around 200 pounds.

Other companies said to be involved in the project include Anglo American Corp
(AMSJ.J) of South Africa, Newmont(NGC - news) and Placer Dome(PDG.TO -
news).
