2018 Canada $30 110th Anniversary of the Royal Canadian Mint Fine Silver
In the heart of Ottawa, Ontario, an imposing wrought-iron fence guards a fortress-like complex where history is both made and commemorated. In honour of the Royal Canadian Mint’s 110th anniversary, this filigree gate-themed offering pays homage to the heritage building that has borne witness to our historic milestones, along with the wrought-iron gates that have safeguarded it since 1908.

Special Features:
• A Special Anniversary Piece. A visually striking coin that creatively commemorates the 110th anniversary of both a Canadian institution and a historic site: the Royal Canadian Mint!
• Filigree Gate Technology. This is our fourth filigree gate-themed offering. Stretching across the reverse from rim to rim, an intricately fashioned gate is a small-scale reproduction of the black wrought-iron gates that guard the entrance to our headquarters in Ottawa, Ontario.
• Tried, Tested and True. Extensive research and development have helped determine just the right amount of metal to create a resilient gate without obscuring the view of the image behind it.
• A 2 oz. Tribute in Pure Silver. The coin’s larger diameter allows ample room for small details in the colour-over-engraved depiction of the heritage building that is synonymous with the Royal Canadian Mint.
• A Limited Collectible. A special significance, a lower mintage and the artistic beauty of the carefully crafted design all combine to make this a remarkable addition to any collection-a piece to be treasured time and time again.
