This brilliant 2015 25-cent pure gold coin honours the mysterious grizzly bear, an animal with a uniquely varied set of behaviours. Often displaying great tenderness with animals and humans, and other times ready for serious aggression, could there be a more appropriate reference to the elusive Canadian identity? Limited mintage of 10,000 worldwide. HST/GST exempt.
The Design:
This small and charming piece is crafted in a half a gram of 99.99% pure gold and struck in premium proof finish, a feature which lets the eye delight in the striking details of the fur and the intensity of its expression. Posed in profile, it almost seems as if the massive grizzly was about to come to life.
The fourth coin in the Royal Canadian Mint's sought-after series of large mammals on small, pure gold coins, this is an excellent and affordable way to add a gold coin to your collection!
