The Royal Canadian Mint’s 2018 puzzle coin set. Dives into the pages ofhistory for a visual exploration of Canada’s identity from 1866 to 1916. They are the snapshots of a bygone era-images that speak to who we were and still are today. This Puzzle coin set is the story of Canada from 1866 to 1916, told through select photographs from Library and Archives Canada. From a Father of Confederation tothe image of winter in Canada, each puzzle-shaped coin is an exquisite stepping-stone through time, culminating in the selectively gold-plated centrepiece and its depiction of Canada’s political heart during that era: the original Centre Block on Parliament Hill. A 14-coin puzzle set that pieces together Canada’s first 50 years! The Royal Canadian Mint’s 2018 puzzle coin set dives into the pages ofhistory for a visual exploration of Canada’s identity from 1866 to 1916. A NATION’S PHOTO ALBUM! The 13 outer puzzle-shaped pieces feature sepia-toned reproductions of photographs from the collection of Library and Archives Canada, the national institution tasked with preserving Canada’s documentary heritage. Each of these imagesrepresents a different theme, from Canada’s most influential prime ministers to photographs representing culture, industry and transport. In addition to the gold-coloured frames on the 13 outer pieces, the centre coin features selective gold plating on its depiction of the Centre Block building and along the rim, as well as the combined effigies on the obverse. The completed puzzle comes beautifully packaged in a wooden collector case with black beauty box. With a very low mintage of just 800 coins worldwide, this is likely to be an equally limited collecting opportunity. A must-have for numismatists and history enthusiasts! Your 14-piece puzzle coin set is 99.99% pure silver, with a combined diameter of 123.7 millimetres and a total nominal metal weight of 502.47 grams. Designed by artist Tony Bianco, the center coin design features a gold plated image of the Centre Block of Canada’s parliament buildings which were completed (for the Province of Canada) in 1866, and remained the home of Canada’s federal government until 1916 when all but the Library of Parliament was destroyed by fire. Surrounding the Centre Block of Parliament image, the 13 puzzle-shaped coins feature sepia-toned reproductions of historic photographs from Library and Archives Canada. These images connect to form a visual narrative of the first half century ofCanada as a self-governing nation. Wyon, King Edward VII by G. DeSaulles and King George V by Sir E. Featured on the central coin, the original Centre Blockbuilding on Parliament Hill was built to house the legislature of the Province of Canada. It was completed in 1866, but became the seat of government for the Dominion of Canada following Confederation in 1867. Tragically, fire gutted the Centre Block and its familiar Victoria Tower on the night of February 3, 1916, sparing only the Library of Parliament. Photography can be credited with helping to build this nation and develop its identity. Government use of photographs can be traced back to surveying expeditions in the Prairies during the 1850s and in the Arctic by the end of the century. Photos also became promotionaltools for both private and commercial interests, including the railroad companies that sought to promote Canada as an immigration or tourist destination. Your completed puzzle comes beautifully packaged in a wooden collector case with black beauty box. Each coin is individually encapsulated with a defined space between them, to draw attention to the individual pieces and reduce the risk of rubbing during transit.
