The beaver and the maple leaf are the defining images of a nation: one speaks of the past, when the fur trade helped shape Canada; the other predates the flag as an emblem of this land, its people, and Canadians hope for the future. The Royal Canadian Mint reflects on a nation’s 150-year journey and beyond through the fusion of two iconic symbols that continue to inspire admiration by proudly representing all that is Canada. Certificate of Authenticity Serial Numbers below 1,500. A selectively gold-plated, pure silver piedfort coin! This piedfort coin is heavier and almost about twice the thickness of a standard 34mm coin! A DISTINCTLY CANADIAN CELEBRATION! Two proud national symbols combine to represent Canada’s past, present, and future in one outstanding design. THE BEAVER AND THE MAPLE LEAF! The design fuses traditional imagery with contemporary depictions of long-standing Canadian icons: the beaver and the maple leaf. OUTSTANDING LEVEL OF DETAIL! The coin features an outstanding level of detail as seen in the texture of the beaver’s fur and the maple leaf’s veins. The Royal Canadian Mint certifies all of its collector coins. Most of these are serialized certifications, meaning that each certificate is given a unique number. For this particular coin, the certificate of authenticity number is below 1,500! LOW MINTAGE: Only 7,000 coins were made available worldwide. ONE-OUNCE 99.99% PURE SILVER COIN! For our Canadian customers, this coin is GST/HST exempt! Designed by Canadian artist Pierre Leduc, the coin carries great meaning on this 150th anniversary of Confederation, by paying tribute to Canada’s evolving history through the two foremost national icons. A transition marks the center of the field, with classic depictions on the left to represent the nation’s past (1867), and more contemporary versions on the right to represent both the present (2017) and beyond. Both icons are resplendent in selective gold plating. Foremost is the beaver, the industrious mammal that symbolizes Canada’s sovereignty. Its tail and back half are texturally detailed, as it has appeared on previous coin designs, while the front portion transitions into a stylized silhouette that offers a more modern take on this Canadian icon. Behind it is the iconic maple leaf, whose serrated edges and deeply veined lobes are fixtures throughout the design. The left features a more natural and life-like appearance that evokes the reverse of the beloved Silver Maple Leaf (SML) coin, while the right portion places a strong emphasis on symmetry and conveys a sense of strength. Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell protected by a black beauty box. So our costs for Canadian coins also vary from day to day. Unsearched All of the coins offered in this listing are unsearched. Many coin dealers search all coins when they are received from the Mint. They “cherry-pick” the best coins. Then submit them to be graded, certified, and slabbed by PCGS, NGC, ANACS, etc. When a dealer searches coins, those that they sell in original Mint packaging are only lesser quality coins. Photos: When a listing offers multiples of the same coin, one coin is picked at random and photographed. Since all coins offered in that listing are essentially identical, the coin photographed is representative of all coins offered. Surface areas that appear black on some coin photos are actually highly polished, mirror-bright metal reflecting the color of the camera. Whenever possible, we use actual photos of our coins, rather than just artists conception drawings from the Mint. We frequently update and upgrade the photos that appear with our listings, using improved cameras and lenses and better lighting. We will honor your requests for additional photos as quickly as our schedule permits. The item “Canada 2017 $25 Timeless Icons 1 oz.
