2021 CANADA CF-105 AVRO ARROW 50$ 5oz. 99.99% PURE SILVER COIN

99.99% PURE SILVER COIN. NEW IN ORIGINAL MINT PACKAGE FROM THE CANADIAN MINT. Composition : 99.99% PURE SILVER WITH SELECTIVE GOLD PLATING. Weight (g) : 157.6. Diameter (mm) : 65.25. Face value : 50 DOLLARS. Neil Hamelin (reverse), Susanna Blunt (obverse). A symbol of Canadian innovation and ingenuity, the Avro Arrow lives on in our hearts and on this STUNNING 5 oz. Celebrate Canadian innovation and ingenuity with this 5 oz. Fine silver coin, which highlights the story of the Avro CF-105 Arrow. A TRIBUTE TO THE INNOVATORS! Our depiction of the Arrow casts a uniquely shaped shadow on your coin’s reverse. It’s a powerful tribute to the Canadians who designed and built the most advanced fighter jet of its time. Selective gold plating adds a dazzling gleam to our finely engraved homage to the Arrow. It’s an upscale feature that gives you the best of both worlds, silver. Gold, and it creates a striking contrast. Your coin is crafted from 5 oz. Of 99.99% pure silver and features a mirror-like proof finish for maximum shine. Only 1,000 of these coins are available worldwide. The Royal Canadian Mint certifies all of its collector coins. Designed by Canadian artist Neil Hamelin, your coin’s reverse is an artistic tribute to Canada’s most famous aircraft, the Avro CF-105 Arrow. The gold-plated supersonic interceptor jet appears to be too fast and too powerful to be contained on the reverse, where a unique perspective emphasizes its sleek profile. On the runway, the maple leaf-shaped shadow pays homage to the innovators who designed and built the iconic Arrow, which was, and remains, the pride of Canada. The obverse features a maple leaf pattern and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. Was commissioned to develop a supersonic interceptor that would bolster North America’s air defences during the Cold War. Production began at the company’s facilities in the town of Malton, Ontario, and on October 4, 1957, the first Arrow, RL-201, was unveiled to great fanfare. After a successful first flight on March 25, 1958, four more prototypes were completed, plus one Arrow Mk. The twin-engine, delta-winged Arrow was hailed as a technological triumph; it was the first production aircraft to adopt a fly-by-wire flight control system, while the newly developed Iroquois PS-13 turbojet engine would have allowed it to fly at a speed exceeding Mach 2twice the speed of sound. But the program was cancelled on February 20, 1959. All prototypes, models, plans and equipment were ordered destroyed, though some surviving pieces can be found in Canadian museums. Many of the Canadian engineers who worked on the Arrow project went on to play important roles in other aviation projects and in the American space program. What’s the largest surviving piece of the Avro Arrow? The nose section of RL-206, which was 98 percent complete when work stopped on the Arrow program. When the Arrows were disassembled in 1959, this section found its way to the Institute of Aviation Medicine in Toronto, where it was used as a pressure chamber. In 1965, it was donated to the National Aeronautical Collection, which became the National Aviation Museum in 1982 and is now the Canada Aviation and Space Museum in Ottawa, Ontario, where the nose section is currently on display. Several more Arrow artifacts have resurfaced in the last few years, including several models that have been recovered from the bottom of Lake Ontario. Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS A PROBLEM BEFORE GIVING YOUR FEEDBACK. Thank’s for looking.

2017 Aircraft of WWII Avro Anson 1oz Proof Silver Coin

Posted on January 7, 2018 | Comments Off

2017 Aircraft of WWII Avro Anson 1oz Proof Silver Coin

2017 Aircraft of WWII – Avro Anson 1oz Proof Silver Coin. Price includes all Eurozone import and VAT charges. If the First World War introduced the concept of aerial combat, then the Second World War cemented its status as one of the defining elements of modern warfare. Rapid advancement in aircraft technology produced the aluminum-clad bombers, cargo planes and jet-powered aircraft that gradually replaced the wooden-framed and fabric-clad biplanes of the Great War. Aircraft carriers allowed planes to extend their reach farther than ever before, while a new technologyradarbolstered defensive and offensive strategies in the skies. The Aircraft of the Second World War series salutes three of the most iconic aircraft flown between 1939 and 1945. Whether used to defend the homeland, in combat overseas or as part of the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan here in Canada, these aircraft are remembered as important symbols of Canadian valour and sacrifice. Coin Metal: 9999 pure silver. Coin Weight: 1oz (31.83g). Year of Issue: 2017. Coin Mintage: 7,500. Country of Issue: Canada (Royal Canadian Mint). The Avro Anson: Nicknamed Faithful Annie, the Avro Anson was reputed for its stability and rugged reliability. Its wartime production fuelled Canadas aircraft manufacturing industry, but its most significant role was arguably as the twin-engine aircraft of the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan (BCATP). Designed by Canadian artist David A. Oram, your coin features an engraved depiction of an Avro Anson in one of its many roles during the war. The legendary aircraft is brought to life once more by an outstanding amount of detailed engraving, all skillfully enhanced by the use of multiple finishes that convey the intensity of the situation, as it flies over a convoy of ships at sea. FEATURES THE EFFIGY OF KING GEORGE VI! Attention to historical accuracy extends to the use of the effigy of King George VI on the obverse of your three coins, as it appeared on Canadian coins issued during the Second World. Your coin is packaged in a standard clamshell case with a numbered certificate of authenticity.
