The Swiss Federal Mint has released (23 January 2020) new gold collector coins, dedicated to eminent Physicist Albert Einstein, which they claim are the smallest machine-minted gold coins in the world. Measuring only 2.96 millimetres in diameter and with a weight of 0.063 grams, the .999 pure gold coins carry a legal tender denomination of 1/4-franc. Because neither image on the minted sides can be discerned with the naked eye, the Swissmint has commissioned special packaging, complete with magnifying lenses and light, ensuring that each coin can be examined while still keeping it safely stored.
