2007 Canada $75 RCMP 14K Olympic Gold Coin

2007 Canada $75 RCMP 14K Olympic Gold Coin

As is typical, the outer cardboard sleeve might have some light wear, and/or the capsule might be scratched.

Originally dispatched in the 19th century to patrol the western frontier, the scarlet-clad Mountie on horseback has become one of the most enduring images of Canada.

Today, the cavalry drills they practiced over a century ago continue to delight audiences everywhere. The Musical Ride is a cornerstone of Canada's cultural heritage and national identity. Experience it for yourself with this expertly crafted coloured gold coin - our first ever!

Citius, Altius, Fortius (Faster, Higher, Stronger)

These three words, comprising the motto of the Olympic movement, encourage the athlete in all of us to give our best during competition, and to view this effort as its own victory.
