2018 Canada Legacy of the Dime 5-coin Fine Silver Set (TAX Exempt)

The Legacy of the Dime set is a unique retrospective look at Canada's 10-cent circulation coin through the years, as struck by the Royal Canadian Mint. More than twice the size of the original issue, these selectively gold-plated pieces are an enduring tribute to the five designs that have graced the diminutive-sized canvas, upon which history itself has been etched.

Special Features:
• A SWEEPING RETROSPECTIVE: This five-coin Legacy of the Dime series traces the history and evolution of Canada's 10-cent circulation coins issued by the Royal Canadian Mint.
• A MODERN TRIBUTE TO PIECES OF HISTORY: All five reverse designs are beautifully re-created here in 99.99% pure silver - including two 2 oz. replicas of 10-cent coins that came to be amid unusual circumstances.
• HISTORIC ART, MODERN-DAY CRAFTSMANSHIP: While the iconic art is unchanged (save for the updated year), each design is enhanced by the use of modern finishes that further highlight the sculpted elements.
• TWO SIDES OF THE STORY: For added historical accuracy, each reverse design is paired with its original obverse.
• LARGER-THAN-LIFE: Each coin in this set is at least twice the size of the original issue. Brought to life on a larger scale than ever (38 mm and 54 mm diameters), every detail in these engraved designs catches the eye and brings renewed appreciation for these familiar images.
