Many coin dealers search all coins when they are received from the Mint. They “cherry-pick” the best coins. Then submit them to be graded, certified, and slabbed by PCGS, NGC, ANACS, etc. When a dealer searches coins, those that they sell in original Mint packaging are only lesser quality coins. Photos: When a listing offers multiples of the same coin, one coin is picked at random and photographed. Since all coins offered in that listing are essentially identical, the coin photographed is representative of all coins offered. Surface areas that appear black on some proof coin photos are actually highly polished, mirror-bright metal reflecting the color of the camera. We often include proof coin photos with the coin slightly tilted to better depict the mirror bright surfaces. However, tilting the coin may resulting one side being slightly out of focus. Whenever possible, we use actual photos of our coins, rather than just stock artwork from the Mint. We frequently update and upgrade the photos that appear with our listings, using improved cameras and lenses and better lighting. We will honor your requests for additional photos as quickly as our schedule permits. The item “Canada 2013 $15 Modern Day Superman 1/2 oz.

The dragon is one of the most powerful creatures in Chinese mythology! It is said to control the rain, the seas and all waterwaysa divine energy that also symbolized imperial power. Dragon boat racing is believed to trace back to an ancient rite during a time of dragon worship, when participants appealed to the mythical spirit to ensure abundant rain for their crops. Waves are an auspicious pattern: they are often painted on the body of the boat, which is traditionally made of teak wood. While the drummer at the front helps to keep time, the sweep at the rear also plays a key role by controlling the direction of the boat and generally coaching the paddlers. The first dragon boat race in Canada was held in July 1986, as a demonstration during Expo 86 in Vancouver, B. Fittingly for such a powerful mythological symbol, the depiction of a Chinese dragon combines traditional artistic elements, show-stopping colour, and exquisite engraving!
