2019 $20 Canada's Historical Stamps Coat of Arms & Flags Special Delivery Silver (No Tax)

Beyond history-themed pictorials and portraits, Canada's philatelic history can also provide a sense of the nation's mindset at a key moment in time. Such is the case with this uniquely shaped reproduction of a Canadian postage stamp issued in 1942, when a proud nation had dedicated its resources to support the Allied effort in the Second World War.

Special Features:
• THIRD and FINAL coin in the series. With serrated edges that mimic a postal stamp's perforations, this fine silver coin is a numismatic celebration of Canada's postal and philatelic history, with a special focus on early 20th century stamp designs.
• The classic look of a bygone era. This coin looks back at Canada during the war years with a reproduction of the 10-cent special delivery stamp from the 1942-43 War issue.
• Faithful reproduction. The engraved reproduction of the 1908 stamp is just as detailed as the original - complete with horizontal lines that were the product of intaglio printing, or line engraving, one of the oldest methods of stamp production.
• Vintage colours. A modern application of green colour completes the vintage (and historically accurate) look of this classic design.
• Forever preserved in 99.99% pure silver, this collectible is the perfect gift for philatelists and numismatists alike.

Packaging:
Maroon clamshell with black beauty box.
