IT WILL BE remembered as one of the iconic moments of the 2014 World Cup — and now Robin van Persie’s header against Spain is getting its own coin.
The Royal Dutch Mint will produce a limited edition run of 6,000 coins featuring a silhouette of van Persie soaring through the air.
Want one? You’re too late unfortunately. The collector coin, which retailed at €9.95 but has no monetary value, is already sold out.
A few have popped up on eBay already with prices starting as high as €75.
How about we just look at the photo and the goal again instead?
