• CANADIAN PRIDE FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA-- Designed by Canadian artist Jamie Desrochers, the 150th anniversary coin has an eye-catching image on its reverse with a unique multi-dimensional feel. Featuring the map of Canada flowing beneath Canada’s national flag, the most distinctive element of the coin is the large "150" at the coin’s center. Also inscribed on the coin are the words "CANADA", "DOLLAR," the initials JD for Jamie Desrochers, and the commemorative dates "1867-2017." The obverse of the coin depicts a bust of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, based on a design created in 2003 by Canadian portrait artist Susanna Blunt. Its inscriptions include "ELIZABETH II," "DG REGINA," and "CANADA."
• CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY COMBINED WITH INSPIRED CRAFTSMANSHIP-- The Canadian Royal Mint knew that this coin needed to be a cut above, and they were up to the challenge, utilizing laser frosting to give the flag an ethereal appearance as it flies above the high-relief map of Canada. In addition, your coin is certified in Proof condition, indicating that it is specifically designed to display sharpness of detail and a brilliant, mirror-like surface. The 150th anniversary commemorative coin will arrive at your door in a maroon clamshell housed inside an elegant black box, and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
