Description
In 2004, the Royal Canadian Mint and Canada Post jointly introduced a new series of limited edition matched coin and stamp sets featuring Canadian wildlife. These sets are presented in high quality wooden display cases showcasing both the coin and stamps, and come with an information booklet about the featured animals. The Majestic Moose is the first coin in the series, and has been nearly impossible to find in the secondary market.
The coin is in double struck frosted cameo proof condition, and weighs nearly an ounce of .9999 pure silver. Two matching $5 postage stamps are also included, one in unused mint condition and the second with an official day of issue cancellation.
