Description

This 2014 $15 coin honours the men whose irrepressible spirit and tenacity have helped to shape Canada’s identity. This pure silver coin boasts a thrilling depiction of “voyageurs”, Canadians who faced both adventure and peril throughout the duration of their careers, transporting fur by canoe during Canada’s industrious fur trade era. Mintage is 15,000 coins. HST/GST exempt.

 

The Design:

The image by Canadian artist John Mantha depicts five men riding tumultuous rapids in a birch-bark canoe, as a First Nations oarsman guides the voyageurs on the exhilarating journey. This image conveys some of the many regular perils in the lives of these travelers.
