1902-2027 Fine Gold 4 Coin Set – Edward VII, Plus Free Bonus

Each year the Royal Canadian Mint issues a small quantity of premium four piece fine gold coin sets. This 2027 pure gold fractional set takes a new historic twist as it marks the 125^th anniversary of the 1902 coronation of King Edward VII. It is a pure gold tribute to the Gilded Age and the dawn of the Edwardian era—an age of innovation, growth, and grandeur. 

Inspired by the Canadian 25- and 50-cent coins issued in 1902, all four coins feature a maple wreath on the reverse, along with the Imperial Crown design introduced in 1902, while the double dates (“1902 2027”) commemorate the 125th anniversary of the coronation of King Edward VII. On the 1 oz. coin, platinum plating adds a contrasting silver-white lustre to these historic design elements, and to the royal portrait on the obverse. Each obverse features the crowned effigy of King Edward VII by George William De Saulles, as seen on Canadian coins issued in 1902, along with the Latin legend “EDWARDVS VII DEI GRATIA REX IMPERATOR” (“Edward the Seventh, King [and] Emperor by the Grace of God”).

The coronation of King Edward VII in 1902 brought more than a new effigy to Canadian coinage: it signaled a generational shift. Replacing Queen Victoria’s long-familiar likeness, King Edward VII’s image embodied the promise of a new century—one shaped by the modernization and growth of the Edwardian era, which would lay the groundwork for Canada’s eventual coming of age.
