It’s the smallest of the Chinese zodiacs, but its quick mind won it first spot in the Chinese lunar calendar. These enterprising individuals are incredibly curious and quick to ferret out an opportunity. They can be rather forward, but their honest and candid ways soon put everyone at ease. Rat people are remarkably easy to get along with. They are bright, fun loving, and care deeply about the people in their lives. They succeed at virtually everything they do, but business is where they truly shine. Rat people can strategize and stretch finances like no other. Mintage is limited to 10,888. Canadian artist Aries Cheung has created an endearing design of a Rat in its character pose as it explores the field of the coin. Seen from above, the Rat is positioned between lucky waves to the left and auspicious clouds to the right, their swirling contours echoed in the Rat’s fur to bestow good fortune upon this zodiac sign. The Chinese character for “Rat” is engraved above the waves. NumisCan Coins and Jewelry is committed to providing an exceptional experience every time you shop with us.

The Imperial State Crown. A symbol of Queen Elizabeth II and her extraordinary reign, the royal cypher on the coin’s reverse is framed by an artistic interpretation of the Imperial State Crown, complete with colourful glass stones and four crystals that tie into the coin’s obverse. The Imperial State Crown is one of the most iconic pieces of royal regalia known as the Crown Jewels. This was the crown worn by Queen Elizabeth II upon leaving Westminster Abbey after her coronation in 1953; and in the many years that followed, it was the one that represented both her authority as Head of State and the grace with which she reigned. Edward’s Crown is only ever used for the coronation, the Imperial State Crown (or Crown of State) is worn on formal occasions, such as the State Opening of (British) Parliament. The State Crown has been replaced 10 times since the Restoration in 1660. The one depicted on this coin was made for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II’s father, King George VI, in 1937; it is a replica of the crown designed for Queen Elizabeth II’s great-great-grandmother, Queen Victoria, in 1838. The coin’s reverse features the Royal Cypher of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by an artistic representation of the Imperial State Crown, as viewed from above. An arrangement of 16 blue and green glass stones stand in for the array of precious stones that adorn the crown, while the reverse includes four crystals-one for each of the effigies that have graced Canada’s coins since 1953. Complete the Queen Elizabeth II’s Reign with this elegant 99.99% pure silver tribute. Its design was inspired by the crown frequently worn by Queen Elizabeth II during her long reign. On the coin’s reverse, the artistic interpretation of the Imperial State Crown is enhanced with 16 blue and green glass stones that add colour. They also represent some of the historic jewels that famously adorn the crown, as well as those from Queen Elizabeth II’s jewellery collection. Crystals: The reverse also features four crystals-one for each of the effigies that have graced Canada’s circulation coins since 1953. An emblematic crown. Two of the world’s most famous crowns are represented in this design: the Imperial State Crown, worn on formal occasions as an expression of authority and tradition; and St. Edward’s Crown, the coronation crown, which is included in the Royal Cypher. The Symbol of a Reign. Included on the coin’s reverse, Queen Elizabeth II’s personal identifier, the Royal Cypher, served as a symbol of Canada’s sovereignty and its sovereign for 70 years.

As is typical of coins from this year, the outer cardboard sleeve might have some light wear, and/or the capsule might have some minor scratches. Take your collection to fabulous new heights with the second coin in the Royal Canadian Mint’s architectural series that celebrates Toronto’s defining landmark, the CN Tower. At 553.33 m (1,815 ft 5 in), it is the tallest building in the world! The CN Tower took 1,537 workers 40 months to build. Once the graceful tower was complete, the steel broadcasting antenna was put into place. Each section was raised by helicopter and secured into position by workmen who were standing on a 1.5 m (5 ft) diameter platform more than (450 m) 1,500 ft in the air! After all, this is why Canadian National built it: to send transmission signals far above the skyscrapers that were built during the 1960′s. With microwave receptors at 338 m (1,109 ft) and a broadcasting antenna at 553 m (1,815 ft), Torontonians would enjoy some of the clearest reception in North America! But the towering architecture quickly surpassed this achievement as the tower was named one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. From the moment it opened its doors on June 26, 1976, the CN Tower has reigned as one of Canada’s premier entertainment destinations. Celebrate its 30th birthday with this fabulous 99.99% pure silver hologram coin! Specifications: Face Value: 20 dollars Mintage: 15,000 Composition: 99.99% Silver Weight (g): 31.39 Diameter (mm): 38 Edge: Serrated Finish: Proof Packaging: Maroon display case with an insert which houses the coin.
