The tree is topped with a 20-ounce Philharmonic coin set within a golden star that rounds the decoration off with the price tag of $2.7 million.

The Pro Aurum Christmas tree stands three meters high and has been assembled completely by hand to ensure the utmost attention to detail. The tree will be showcased at the Pro Aurum Munich gold house, but only until December 15.
