2017 CANADA COIN LORE THE FORGOTTEN 1927 DESIGNS 1 OZ. PURE SILVER 3 COIN SET. NEW IN ORIGINAL MINT PACKAGE FROM THE CANADIAN MINT. Composition : 99.99% PURE SILVER. Weight (g) : 31.39. A glimpse of the Royal Canadian Mint’s archives! On the 150th anniversary of Confederation, we look back on history to re-visit proposed coin designs from another milestone year: Confederation’s Diamond Jubilee in 1927! These designs have appeared on coins, and they may be the only coin designs submitted to the Royal Canadian Mint by Group of Seven co-founder J. MacDonald and renowned muralist Gustav Hahn! You could say these coins were. 90 years in the making! Our team of engravers pored over every little detail of the original sketches in order to interpret each artist’s vision, while adapting it for today’s engraving techniques and finishes. A DESIGN THAT STANDS OUT! The matte field on each coin puts the focus squarely on the beautifully engraved elements that truly shine! The Royal Canadian Mint certifies all of its collector coin sets. Most of these are serialized certifications, meaning that each certificate is given a unique number, starting at 1. This coin set is limited to just 5,500 sets worldwide. EACH COIN IS ONE OUNCE OF 99.99% PURE SILVER! All three coins feature the unused circulation coin designs intended to commemorate Canada’s Diamond Jubilee in 1927. Working with the original sketches (and little else), the Royal Canadian Mint’s engravers set out to interpret each artist’s vision as though the art had been entrusted to them today, to mark Confederation’s 150th anniversary. The 90-year-old concepts have been painstakingly adapted for modern engraving techniquesincluding a reverse proof finish that allows the more brilliant engraved elements to shine bright against the matte backdrop. The five-cent coin by Canadian artist J. A second design by MacDonald graces the reverse of the 25-cent coin, and centres on a soaring view of the iconic Peace Tower on Parliament Hill. The clock tower soars high above the clouds and is surrounded by a ribbon-wrapped laurel of leaves, from which hangs four bellsan ode to the Dominion Carillon, which was inaugurated on July 1, 1927, during the Diamond Jubilee festivities. Each bell bears engraved numbers that combine to form the commemorative dates “2017″ and “1867″. On our 10-cent coin, and the Voyageur design of the original silver dollar. Hahn is credited as a pioneer of the Art Nouveau style in Canada, where his murals are found in several public buildingsmost famously the Ontario Legislature and Old City Hall in Toronto. James Edward Hervey J. Live coverage of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations in Ottawa marked Canada’s first-ever coast-to-coast broadcast. On July 1, 1927, telephone and telegraph companies joined forces with radio stations to broadcast speeches and songs from Parliament Hillincluding the inaugural peals of the Peace Tower’s carillon bells, which are alluded to in the 25-cent coin design. Some of the most famous Canadian coins of all time were issued during another big year: Canada’s Centennial in 1967! Artist Alex Colville provided the reverse designs seen on all Canadian circulation coins issued that year. Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS A PROBLEM BEFORE GIVING YOUR FEEDBACK.
