Product Overview
Intrigue is crafted into every aspect of this coin—its minute proportions, its intricate engraving, its pure gold composition and its limited mintage of only 10,000. This keepsake is highly collectable; it's one of the Royal Canadian Mint's most accessible gold coins ever.
This coin design features a flock of geese flying in V formation; it's a sign of the changing seasons, and a sight that also symbolizes Canada's untamed grandeur. The Canada goose is arguably the most widely known goose species in North America that's readily recognized by its distinctive black head and neck with a white "chinstrap." Males are generally larger that females, growing 30 to 43 inches long with a wingspan of 50 to 67 inches. Couples are known to mate for life and nurture their young for several months after hatching. Their nests are usually located in elevated areas near streams and ponds.
The Great Lakes region is home to a large population of Canada geese. In spring and autumn, their distinctive honking call fills the air, alerting residents along migratory flight-paths of the wondrous sight passing overhead.
Previous coins in the series include the 2004 moose, the 2005 Voyageur, the 2006 cowboy, the 2007 wolf, the 2008 de Havilland beaver, the 2009 red maple and the 2010 RCMP.
