Description

Celebrate the 35th anniversary of the original trivia game created by two Canadians!
The Design:
The reverse design pays tribute to the enduring popularity of Trivial Pursuit, its Canadian origins, and its 35-year history as one of the top-selling board games in the world. The piedfort offers nearly double the thickness of traditional coins, allowing for high-relief engraving to capture the look and appearance of the six individual wedges that complete this game-winning piece, while the application of coloured enamel recreates the iconic colours of each question category. The reverse also features the iconic "TRIVIAL PURSUIT" logo engraved between the dates "1982" and "2017".
This piece is sure to catch the eye of any game board enthusiast! Your coin comes beautifully enclosed in a premium wooden case and custom packaging that cleverly mimics a Trivial Pursuit board and box.
