A World First !

Introducing the first bullion coins promoting the Olympic Spirit.
As Canada began its preparations for Vancouver 2010, the Royal Canadian Mint’s world-renowned Silver Maple Leaf bullion coins emerged as a fitting medium to celebrate the powerful symbolism of this precious metal. An historic agreement with the International Olympic Committee produced these groundbreaking bullion coins showcasing Canada’s defining winter sport, its rich aboriginal cultures, and the pride of Vancouver 2010.

This set includes three uniquely designed coins featuring an ice hockey player in full stride, a stylized maple leaf alongside the VANOC logo and a thunderbird.

Beautifully presented in an attractive maple display case.
