Sold Out
Limit Note - This set sold out completely at the Mint in under 24 hours, and the total mintage is only 4,000! We reserve the right to limit quantities.

To commemorate the 2010 Winter Olympics (officially known as the XXI Olympic Winter Games) , the Royal Canadian Mint has struck this special Silver Maple Leaf set, which includes one each of the first series of one ounce, pure silver bullion Olympic commemorative coins ever! To make the set even more special, each SML is selectively plated in 24-karat gold, and the set has a total mintage of only 4,000!

Because this is the only way to get these gold-plated Silver Maple Leaf coins, and due to the immense interest in the Olympic Games, this Special Edition Olympic Silver Maple Leaf Program has enjoyed unprecedented popularity.

The three coins included in the set are:

2008 Inukshuk Logo Olympic Silver Maple Leaf Coin!
2009 Native American Thunderbird Olympic Silver Maple Leaf Coin!
2010 Hockey Player Olympic Silver Maple Leaf Coin!

To top it off, the set is packaged in a luxurious solid maple wood presentation case, lined with black velvet and protected by a full color outer sleeve.

Because of its exceptionally low mintage limit and uniqueness within the SML series, we believe that this set will become a key to the entire series. Don't delay on this one, or you will regret it later! We have only a few sets available!


2010 Canada First Olympic Gold Medal on Canadian Soil $200 Gold Proof

2010 $200 Gold ProofFirst Canadian Gold Medal!
Sold OutOn Valentines Day 2010, Sunday February 14th, Alexandre Bilodeau of Rosemère, Québec won a Winter Olympic Gold Medal in men's moguls skiing at the Cypress Mountain venue of the Vancouver Winter Olympics. But his was no "ordinary" gold medal (if there could be said to be such a thing!). His was the first gold by a Canadian in any event at an Olympics held in Canada.

We can't recommend this one highly enough! The $200 gold proofs are always extremely popular, but this one sold out at the Mint in under 24 hours! Commemorating a momentous occasion in Canadian sports and Olympic history, and with an unbelievably low total mintage of only 2,010 (only half the usual limit for a $200 gold piece), we believe that this unique gold proof has only one direction to go - up!

Limit Note - This coin sold out completely at the Mint in under 24 hours, and the total mintage is only 2,010! We reserve the right to limit quantities.

This stunning gold coin is long sold out at the mint, but we have a few available, in complete and original Mint packaging! Get this low mintage, high face value ($100) proof containing a full quarter-ounce of gold

Canada 2009 Purple Pitcher Plant .99999 $350 Gold Proof2009 Pitcher Plant .99999 Pure Gold
Beauty and  potential to appreciate - the world’s largest purest (.99999 fine) gold coin is the perfect storm of precious metal investments! This incredibly beautiful coin is part of a series known as the “5 9s” gold coins because of their purity (.99999 fine), each coin in this series features one of the official provincial or territorial flowers.

Each contains one and one-eighth ounces of the purest gold on the planet! These incredible proof coins typically sell out at the mint and then increase in value. They can be very difficult to find once sold out. The 2009 mintage limit was only 1,400! This guarantees that the 2009 Purple Pitcher Plant of Newfoundland will be one of the keys to the series.


Price Increase Imminent
While the Mint has continues to raise the price on all of its gold coins, we still have a few of these golden gems at a significant percentage below the issue price! Whether you're an astute investor who understands the market performance of the Five Nines series, or you have simply always wanted to possess one of these very rare coins - get one now before the inevitable price increase!

Nearly Sold Out!
Consider this fair warning - the Mint has informed us that the $350 Pitcher Plant is in imminent danger of selling out! Then the price will go up! Therefore, please place your order as soon as possible to get this below issue price before we have no choice but to raise it!
