Product Overview
This is a complete set of Canadian coins in the highest grade issued for collectors by the Royal Canadian Mint. All six coin denominations issued in 1961 are included (the penny, nickel, dime, quarter, half-dollar and silver dollar). The coins are all in proof-like condition. Proof-like coins are specially struck by the Mint with a mirror finish and near-flawless surfaces. The set comes displayed in an attractive mahogany finish wooden case.
The Silver Dollar
One of the highlights of this collection is the 1961 voyageur silver dollar. The design on the dollar coin is the same design as was on Canada's first dollar coin issued in 1935. It features an Indigenous person and a voyageur (a travelling agent for a fur company), paddling a canoe past a small island with two wind-swept trees. The vertical lines in the background represent the Northern Lights.
The Half-Dollar, Quarter, Dime, Nickel and Cent
The half-dollar is also a beautiful coin, featuring an intricate modified coat-of-arms design introduced in 1959. This old silver half-dollar is significantly larger than the current 50-cent coins, and extremely appealing to most collectors. The fronts of the penny, nickel, dime and quarter are the familiar designs still used today, but the backs of all the coins bear the original young portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
