Another first for the Royal Canadian Mint - a reverse gold plated silver coin!
Inukshuks have traditionally been used to help with navigation or direction in Northern Canada, where there are vast, open spaces with few points of reference. Building an inukshuk is a selfless act to help direct and protect other travelers, and represents the best in the spirit of the people of the North.
Both sides of this coin have been reverse plated, with only the inukshuk and the effigy of the Queen standing out in brilliant silver.
Sure to be a hot collectible, this will appeal to lovers of the Canadian North as well as those who appreciate the technical innovation of the Royal Canadian Mint.
ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT
The Royal Canadian Mint is known as one of the most reputable mints in the world. The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1998.
