Comment
THE 1917 50-CENT COIN CELEBRATES ITS 100TH ANNIVERSARY!From the national coat of arms to the maple leaf, the Canadian emblem par excellence, Canada's 50-cent circulation coin is renewed to symbolize the evolution of a nation now celebrating its 150th anniversary. Elegantly embellished with selective gold plating, this exclusive coin offers a unique retrospective look at the centenary of the coin issued in 1917.
Packaging
The coin is presented in a superb wooden box with black padding. Embellished with the Royal Canadian Mint logo, the box features a removable tray and a special compartment for the certificate.
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.
