2017 Canada 10-cent Big Coin - Alex Colville Design 5oz. Fine Silver (No Tax)

Fifty years ago, as a young nation celebrated its centennial anniversary, the Royal Canadian Mint issued a special series of circulation coins that are now regarded as some of the most iconic Canadian coins of all time. The third coin in this continuing Big Coin series faithfully re-creates Alex Colville's concept for the ten-cent coin from the 1967 Canadian Centennial circulation coins - albeit on a much larger scale.

Specifications:
Item Number: 156072
Composition: 99.99% pure Silver
Mintage:2,150
Weight (g): 157.6
Diameter (mm): 65.25
Face Value: 10 Cents
Finish: Proof
Edge: Serrated

Special Features:
- THIRD coin in an unforgettable series that celebrates Canada's 150th anniversary and the 50th anniversary of the 1967 Canadian Centennial circulation coins.
- Never before have these iconic designs been featured in 99.99% pure silver - and on a much larger scale (65.25-mm diameter) - uniquely enhanced with stunning gold plating selectively applied to the reverse and obverse.
- The proof finish is gorgeously enhanced with modern polishing techniques that highlight the meticulous engraving of each subject. For added historical authenticity, the obverse features the second effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, as it appeared on the original coins.
- Third Big Coin series to feature iconic Canadian circulation coins: Previous ones sold out very quickly; given the popularity of the original designs, and a low mintage of just 2,150 coins per denomination, this series will be highly sought after.
- An eye-catching addition to any Canadiana-, history-themed or circulation coin collections.
- A great opportunity to revisit a proud moment in our history while celebrating another key milestone!

Packaging:
Maroon clamshell with graphic beauty box
