Elegantly embellished with selective gold plating, this exclusive coin offers a unique retrospective look at the centenary of the coin issued in 1917.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of silver and gold plating. The coin is made of .9999 silver, but it also has selective gold plating on certain design elements, such as the maple leaf and the numerals "50." This creates a striking contrast between the silver and gold, making the coin truly stand out.
