2020 Canadian Colourised Circulation Collection - Fine Silver 6-Coin Set with Medallion

2020 Canadian Colourised Circulation Collection - Fine Silver 6-Coin Set with Medallion

Now in its third year, our coin and medallion set is the only annual set to feature Canada's circulation coin designs in colour and in 99.99% pure silver. You'll find those classic designs in the 2020 edition but the 5-cent coin is an exclusive colourized tribute to Thomas Shingles' Victory nickel. Shingles originally engraved the design on the medallion too: it's a faithful reproduction  of the Canadian Volunteer Service Medal, which was awarded to more than 650,000 Canadians in recognition of their voluntary service in the Second World War. This set perfectly embodies the nation's spirit in 1945 and in 2020, as we honour those who contributed to the Allied victory 75 years ago.

Features:

OUR THIRD COLOURIZED COIN AND MEDALLION SET: Your set features Canada's 2020 circulation coin designs in 99.99% pure silver and accented with colour!
AN EXCLUSIVE: A "V" FOR "VICTORY" TAKES THE PLACE OF G.E. KRUGER-GRAY'S CLASSIC BEAVER DESIGN ON THE 5-CENT COIN: This is the only set in 2020 that includes a colour version of the Victory nickel issued to commemorate the 75th anniversary of V-E Day.
THIS MEDALLION IS ONLY AVAILABLE AS PART OF THIS SET – IT IS NOT AVAILABLE SEPARATELY: The medallion in this set is a faithful reproduction of the Canadian Volunteer Service Medal (CVSM), which honoured volunteer service (1939-1947) in the Second World War.
ETCHED IN HISTORY: Both the Victory nickel and the Canadian Volunteer Service Medal were engraved by Thomas Shingles, former Master Engraver at the Royal Canadian Mint.
A TRADITIONAL FINISH: The medallion in this set features a brilliant uncirculated finish that is true to the actual medal.
PROOF FINISH: All six denominations come in their standard size. These coins have been struck at a lower speed than your typical circulation coins; the result is a stunning, mirror-like proof finish that plays up the colour.
A POPULAR ADDITION: The 2018 set sold out within its first month and the 2019 sold quickly too!
CANADA NOW AND THEN: This set is for history enthusiasts and collectors of Canadian coins that speak to our past… and our present!
