Description
This 2015 $10 coin features goaltender Terry Sawchuk of the Detroit Red Wings® in an action pose that is reminiscent of the many brilliant saves he made during his 21 year NHL® career. It is part of the new $10 fine silver series of legendary great goaltenders from the Original SixTM hockey teams where goalies played with passion and a rugged determination in an era when there was little protective equipment. Each of the Canadian-born net-minder brought their own style of play and made some of pro hockey’s most memorable saves, and helped shape modern goaltending. The coin contains just over half an ounce of fine silver and has a limited mintage of 8,000 coins. HST/GST exempt.
The Design:
The design features a portrait of goaltender during his days playing for the Detroit Red Wings. The netminder’s is in action as he keeps his gaze fixed on the puck beyond the reverse; he is crouched in his familiar stance, with arms and legs splayed out as he uses his remarkably fast reflexes to defend the net.
