Description

As Canada marks its 150th anniversary, this special edition proof dollar set represents a heartfelt celebration of what it means to be Canadian. Each of the seven coins are exclusive for 2017: they include the new circulation coins from the My Canada, My Inspiration collection, a 50-cent coin and a special edition proof dollar that conveys our deep sense of national pride during this milestone year!

Canada, these are your coins. Put your national pride on display with this captivating seven-coin set! Designed by Canadians for Canadians, these powerfully symbolic, 99.99% fine silver coins are a proud representation of who we are as a nation in 2017.

Canada's classic circulation coin designs will not be placed in circulation during this milestone year. Instead, the Royal Canadian Mint will reveal which of the five winning designs from the My Canada, My Inspiration coin design contest will be featured on each denomination, all to celebrate Canada's 150th anniversary!

All seven coins are crafted in 99.99% pure silver and feature selective gold plating that adds an elegant golden shine to the raised elements.

The Design:

Designed by Canadians for Canadians, the engraved images on each reverse of the five circulation coins from the My Canada, My Inspiration collection are exclusive for Canada's 150th anniversary year. The set also includes a 50-cent coin bearing the official CANADA 150 logo of a maple leaf mosaic, which represents Confederation, and a special edition proof dollar designed by artist Jamie Desrochers. Here, the most identifiable of all Canadian symbols, the national flag, is frosted to give it an ethereal appearance - it's a moving represenation of the immense national pride that fills the air as Canadians from coast to coast to coast (represented by the map) come together to celebrate our nation's milestone anniversary.

This is your only opportunity to bring home a gold-plated version of the Special Edition Proof Dollar AND the frosted, fine-silver versions of the My Canada, My Inspiration circulation coins, which are exclusive for 2017.
