The 13 Featured Pathfinders in Canadian History. Leif Erikson (970 1020) – The son of Erik the Red is the first known European to have set foot on Canadas shores. Setting sail from Greenland in the year 1000, Leif and his companions likely sighted the shores of Baffin Island (Helluland) and Labrador (Markland) before landing and wintering near LAnse aux Meadows, Newfoundland and Labrador, site of the only authenticated Viking settlement in North America. John Cabot (1455 1498) – Born Giovanni Caboto in Gaeta (near Naples), Italy, John Cabot and his crew were the second known group of Europeans to reach present-day Canada. Sailing under the flag of England, Cabot spotted land during his 1497 voyage and skirted the east coast of Newfoundland, where he briefly disembarked. Jacques Cartier (1491 1557) – Born in Saint-Malo, France, the French navigator was seeking a northwest route to Asia when he reached the Gulf of St. Lawrence River as far west as Hochelaga (site of present-day Montréal) and the Lachine Rapids. Martin Frobisher (1539 1594) – A former privateer, Frobisher dreamed of finding a fabled Northwest Passage. In 1576, he became the first European to reach the waterway that now bears his name, Frobisher Bay (Nunavut). He completed two more Arctic voyages, in 1577 and 1578, and was the first European to attempt to mine for gold in Northern Canada. Henry Hudson (1570 1611) – Hudson made several attempts to find the Northwest Passage. In 1610, his exploration of the Davis Strait led him to the strait that connects the Atlantic Ocean with the immense bay that now bears his name, Hudson Bay. Samuel de Champlain (1574 1635) – The Father of New France was a skilled cartographer who surveyed portions of the Atlantic coastline, the St. Lawrence River and parts of the Great Lakes. His writings and charts laid the foundation for further exploration inland. In 1608, he built the first permanent (and continuous) habitation in New France on the site of present-day city of Québec. René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle (1643 1687) – After his arrival in 1667, the former Jesuit set up a fur trade outpost near the Lachine Rapids. He completed several expeditions down the Ohio, Illinois and Mississippi Rivers, where he set up a network of forts and trading posts and claimed huge regions of land for France. Upon reaching the Gulf of Mexico in 1682, he named the region La Louisiane in honour of King Louis XIV. Pierre Gaultier de Varennes, Sieur de La Vérendrye (1685 1749) – Born in Trois-Rivières, La Vérendrye dreamed of finding the western sea that lay beyond the Great Lakes. With the help of Indigenous guides, La Vérendrye and his crew including four sons pushed far west as he explored the lakes and rivers of Manitoba and southern Saskatchewan. He was part of a process that added Western Canada to the original New France territory. George Vancouver (1757 1798) – A talented cartographer, Vancouver was a member of James Cooks expedition to the northwest in 1778, when they became the first known Europeans to set foot on Canadas Pacific shores. Between 1791 and 1795, he charted the west coast from 30 N to 56 N and travelled some 96,200 km in his quest for the Northwest Passage. Alexander Mackenzie (1764 1820) – The Scottish-born fur trader was the first European explorer to reach the Pacific by crossing the continent. Helped by Indigenous guides, Mackenzies first expedition in 1789 led him down the long river that bears his name, the Mackenzie River, until he reached the Arctic Ocean. Shanawdithit (1801 1829) – The last surviving member of the Beothuk Nation in Newfoundland, Shanawdithit was taken by the British in 1823 and learned English while working as a servant. After moving to St. Johns in 1828, she played a key role in preserving Beothuk culture and history through her illustrations and translation work. John Franklin (1786 1847) – Franklin led four Arctic expeditions, including one in 1826 that mapped the coastline west of Coppermine River. Last seen in Baffin Bay in 1845, the disappearance of Franklin, his crew and his two ships, the Erebus and the Terror, became one of the great mysteries of the age of exploration. Kate Rice (1882 1963) – Dubbed Extraordinary Woman of the Wilds, Canadas first prominent female prospector was born in St. The former teacher turned homesteader learned the Cree language and took up prospecting in Northern Manitoba. Her copper and nickel discoveries helped transform Thompson, Manitoba into an important mining hub.

The coin’s unusual contour is also significant: a traditional symbol for re-birth and renewal, the egg shape alludes to a timeless seasonal cycle that begins anew each spring. LOW CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY NUMBER, between 1 and 1,500! A benefit for Masters Club members! (serial numbers available when listed: 205, 336, 344, 463, 465, 467, 1422). A “YEAR IN THE LIFE” SNAPSHOT! The coin’s elliptical shape provides an unusual canvas for this maple-themed celebration of Canada’s four seasons! While the extended form provides extra space for the complex design, the egg shape is also a traditional symbol for rejuvenation and re-birth an added nod to the sugar maple’s continuous cycle through the four seasons, beginning in the spring.

A dazzling array of finely engraved details can be found in the quadrants that represent the four seasons, as well as the close-up view of the leaf’s life cycle. A (SELECTIVE) GOLDEN TOUCH!

AN EXQUISITE PIECE TO OWN! In addition to its unusual shape, this beautifully crafted coin possesses artistic beauty and is sure to be treasured for years to come. The Royal Canadian Mint certifies all of its collector coins. LOW MINTAGE: Only 4,000 coins will be made available worldwide. ONE-OUNCE 99.99% PURE SILVER COIN! For our Canadian customers, this coin is GST/HST exempt! Like a “year in the life” snapshot of a Canadian icon, this coin’s image by Margaret Best traces the sugar maple tree and its leaf’s progression through the seasons. A finely engraved maple tree and its mirror image are each divided in half to create quadrants representing spring, summer, fall, and winter, helped by artistic touches that stand in for Mother Nature’s ever-changing color palette. The colored upper left quadrant steps into a spring landscape, where the maple’s branches are covered in the reddish-brown buds featured in the enlarged view near the center. The engraved upper right quadrant leaps ahead to a mid-summer day, where selective gold plating mimics the effect of sunlight on the maple’s broad summer foliage. In the colored lower right quadrant, the fall scene is a tapestry of brilliant red, yellow, and orange hues that famously give Canada its fall colors, while the leaf’s curled edges allude to the seasonal shedding of leaves in preparation for winter. In the engraved lower left quadrant, the maple’s frosted silhouette embodies the resilient spirit of Canadians who embrace their northern climate, even in the face of winter’s fury, while the withered leaf is highlighted with selective gold plating for an elegant contrast. Coupled with the coin’s egg shape, which traditionally symbolizes renewal, the addition of a pair of maple keys is significant: the winged seeds represent the future of the maple and hint at the timelessness of this continuous seasonal cycle. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell protected by a black beauty box.
