$250 Fine Silver Coin – Archival Treasures: 1912 Heraldic Design
Mintage: 400 Worldwide

A fine silver kilo-sized celebration of Canada’s heraldic heritage! In honour of the 100th anniversary of Canada’s official armorial bearings, we went into the national archives to find a rare art treasure: a pen-and-ink drawing of Canadian heraldic emblems in 1912.

Painstakingly re-created on this large-sized (102.1 mm) fine silver coin, the heraldry-themed art is an artistic snapshot of an era — of a Canada before its coming of age.

$8 Pure Gold Coin – Triumphant Dragon
Mintage: 8,888 Worldwide

Inspired by the Chinese proverb “The carp has leaped over the Dragon Gate,” this beautiful gold coin design represents triumph over adversity.

According to legend, many carp swim upstream and attempt to jump the Dragon Gate, but few prevail. If a carp bravely perseveres and completes the final leap, it is rewarded for its hard work by being transformed into a powerful golden dragon — like the triumphant dragon on this 99.99% pure gold coin that comes packaged in a special beauty box that is coloured red for good luck.
