Description

Being placed well within the visible zone of the aurora borealis, many regions of Canada are perfectly positioned to enjoy an amazing view of the northern lights.  Vast regions with little human-made light improve the aurora's visibility and intensity, offering a feast for the eyes.  As Canadians settle in for the long, cold winter with its added hours of darkness, the northern lights offer a good reason to get outside and reconnect with our northern landscape.  Like much of Canada's wilderness, the aurora borealis that we enjoy from sea to sea to sea is powerful, elusive, and humbling - making the companionable warmth of human community even more precious.

Special features:

·        Superbly crafted by Royal Canadian Mint master engravers using a variety of engraving techniques and finishes, and enhanced with color to bring this stunning Arctic image to life.

·        Own a piece of Canada's north, beautifully captured in one-half ounce of 99.99% pure silver.

·        An excellent addition to any nature & wildlife focused, Northern, or Canadiana collection.

·        A beautiful gift or collectible for those who love Canada's North, Inuit, and First Nations heritage, historical images, nature, original artwork, and Canadian themes.

·        For our Canadian customers, this coin is GST/HST exempt.

Design:

This coin features an evocative image of a wolf howling beneath the aurora borealis.  The stunning Northern Lights burst forth in carefully painted glory.  The scene is reflected in the water below, doubling the image and energy of the superb artistry of the Royal Canadian Mint engravers.  Exceptional techniques in engraving and finishing have been used to convey the energy and power of the scene in pure silver.

Packaging:

Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell protected by a custom beauty box.

Description

The year 2015 is ruled by the Sheep. The creative Sheep personality embodies wealth, warmth, and loveliness. Good things seem to come to the Sheep naturally because of its irresistibly good nature. The Sheep rarely speaks its mind. It will go with the flow and only object when things aren't going its way. Push too hard and it will react - decisively! The gregarious Sheep is an eternal romantic. It adores being showered with love and attention.

The Year of the Sheep also ruled 1907, 1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991 and 2003.  However, people born in January or February should consult the Chinese lunar calendar. New Year does not automatically fall on January 1st. This celebration is better known as the Spring Festival and coincides with the first day of spring - a date that shifts from year to year depending upon the lunar cycle and solar year.

The perfect gift for someone born in the Year of the Sheep!

Special features:

·        This Year of the Sheep coin is the newest addition to the popular Chinese Lunar series!

·        The Chinese character yang (meaning "sheep" or "goat") denotes the Year of the Sheep.

·        This $5 coin is crafted in 99.99% pure silver and features beautiful coloring that adds another dimension to the finely detailed engraving.

·        A celebration of Chinese culture!

·        Makes a beautiful and thoughtful gift for those born in the Year of the Sheep, and a beautiful addition to any Chinese zodiac-themed collection.

·        For Canadian customers, this coin is GST/HST exempt.

·        Limited worldwide mintage.

Design:

The reverse image features an artistic rendering of a Bighorn sheep – a native of Canada's Rocky Mountains. The use of color showcases the sheep's beautiful brown coloring. Nestled within the curl of the sheep's distinctive spiral horn, the Chinese character yang (meaning "sheep" or "goat") denotes the Year of the Sheep.

Packaging:

Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clam-shell case protected by a black beauty box.

Press Release

 

Lewisville, Texas – The year 2013 marks the 60th anniversary of the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.  To commemorate this special occasion, we are proud to present this beautiful colored coin.  The coin is an artful addition to any collection—or a perfect gift for followers of all things royal.

 

The special features of this coin include:  a stunning full color portrait coin commemorating the Coronation of Her Majesty; an oversized quarter with a specimen finish plus color; a very limited mintage of only 15,000 coins.   Taken together, these special features have resulted in a “must have” coin for serious collectors, and for all of the many admirers of Queen Elizabeth II.

 

This colored cupronickel coin captures the spirit of Canadian artist Phil Richards’ 2012 official portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, in celebration of Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee.  The reverse also features the engraved word “CANADA,” the date “2013” and the face value of “25 CENTS.”  Each coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell case, lined with flock and protected by a black sleeve.  This coin is a unique way to mark the 60th anniversary of the Queen’s coronation.
