Canada is a diverse nation full of numerous natural wonders and a unique history. The Royal Canadian Mint created a new coin to celebrate the rich, one-of-a-kind heritage of Canada. Right now, you can purchase the 2017 Canadian The Spirit of Canada 1/4 oz Silver Coin in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
The Spirit of Canada coins were created by the Royal Canadian Mint to capture all the things that make Canada unique and special. On these coins, you will see images that reflect the history, legacy, and geography of this large nation.
The coins in this listing are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, which means that they will have no signs of wear and tear. Minor flaws may be noticeable on the surface of the coins. These imperfections could include breaks in the luster, spotted surfaces, and contact marks.
The specimen finish on these coins is very unique. It comes from double striking the blanks on numismatic presses. This gives maximum visual impact, and coins will have a brilliant relief over a matte background.
Obverse
The reverse image is a familiar one. You will see Queen Elizabeth II in right-profile relief. This image has been used on Canadian coinage for years. It was designed by Susanna Blunt, a Canadian artist, in 2003.
Reverse
On the reverse side of these coins, you will notice a cross-country journey created by Steve Hepburn. You will see images of orcas, polar bears, hayfields, prairie lands, and the Herring Seiner of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
History
The Royal Canadian Mint opened in 1908 in Ottawa. To match demand, a secondary facility opened in Winnipeg in the 1980s, and this second facility allowed the Royal Canadian Mint to dramatically increase its minting capacity.
