Theme

To commemorate the centennial anniversary of Canada’s iconic schooner, three different Bluenose commemorative dimes have been issued in 2021, and you’ll find all three versions in this Special Wrap Roll Set. Each set gives you one roll of 50 struck (engraved only) 10¢ coins, one roll of 50 coloured ones, and one roll of 50 double-dated versions of the classic Bluenose dime. But these rolls are not sold individually—they’re only available as a set (this set) or with a subscription to the complete collection of 2021 Special Wrap Rolls.

Special features:
  • A 100-YEAR LEGACY! This year (2021) marks the 100th anniversary of the launch of Bluenose, the pride of Nova Scotia and a Canadian icon! The centennial is commemorated on Canada’s 2021 10-cent circulation coins, which are featured here.
  • THREE DIFFERENT BLUENOSE PORTRAITS! Your collection isn’t complete without the first coloured circulation dime! In fact, Bluenose is featured on three different commemorative 10-cent coins in 2021, and this Special Wrap Roll Set gives you a roll of each: one roll of 50 struck-only dimes, one roll of 50 coloured dimes, and one roll of 50 double-dated (“1921-2021”) dimes featuring the classic image of Bluenose.
  • UNCIRCULATED! None of these coins have been circulated—they still have a newly minted look.
  • ONLY AVAILABLE AS A SET! These Special Wrap Rolls are not sold individually, they are only available as a set. You can also subscribe to the 2021 Special Wrap Roll Commemorative Collection—a one-step purchase option that guarantees you’ll own one roll of every Canadian commemorative circulation coin issued in 2021.
  • A STORY WITHIN A STORY! This Special Wrap Roll Set is part of our yearlong celebration of Bluenose’s journey, from design to launch and throughout its racing years, as well as the schooner’s enduring legacy.
