Now it’s your chance to have this coin drop anchor in your collection—but only if you act fast because just 800 of these seafaring pieces were authorized for worldwide release!

A Striking Example Of A Topsail Schooner Struck In Pure Gold

Struck by the Royal Canadian Mint in a half ounce of 99.99% pure 24-karat gold, this coin features a striking example of the sail plan that made this type of tall ship both strong and nimble. The rigging allowed these two- (or more) masted vessels to carry more sail when sailing off the wind. More importantly, the square topsails provided increased sail area for more speed, and, combined with fore and aft sails, made the ship easier to maneuver in heavy seas—an important consideration for coastal trading in the 1800s!

This legal-tender $100 coin also comes in gorgeous Proof condition, meaning it was expertly crafted by The Mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields. Plus, each coin available here also comes beautifully housed in its original mint packaging that consists of a black clamshell with a graphic beauty box that’s perfect for storage or for display anywhere in your home or office.
