2022 CANADA BLUENOSE THE BIGGER PICTURE 5oz. 10 CENTS 99.99% PURE SILVER COIN. YOU WILL RECEIVE COA #0081. NEW IN ORIGINAL MINT PACKAGE FROM THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT. Composition : 99.99% PURE SILVER. Weight (g) : 157.6. Diameter (mm) : 65.25. Face value : 10 CENTS. Yves Bérubé (reverse), Susanna Blunt (obverse). 99.99% pure silver coin features an engraved reproduction of the dime’s iconic design, which has been incorporated into a larger scene. The combined art is a nod to our maritime history-it shifts the focus to Bluenose’s legacy as a working fishing vessel, and it shines a silvery spotlight on the dorymen who were the backbone of the North Atlantic fishery. Dories are lightweight boats with flat bottoms and high sides. Inexpensively built, they were designed to withstand the rough waves of the North Atlantic, though dories tended to be more stable once they were loaded with a fresh catch. This coin’s reverse features Emanuel Hahn’s 10-cent circulation coin design with a new, expanded scene by Canadian marine artist Yves Bérubé. On the Grand Banks, off the coast of Newfoundland, two fishermen toil at the oars of a wooden dory, while their bait attracts seabirds. The obverse features a maple leaf pattern and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a black Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS A PROBLEM BEFORE GIVING YOUR FEEDBACK.
