Recurrent Favorites - Two More Dragon-Themed Coins!
|

 Canada's First Coin with a hole! The Canada 2007 Chinese Dragon $8 Cash Coin is a
beautiful Chinese-styled silver proof, inspired by the coins of
ancient China. About 523 B.C. cast bronze coins with square holes came
into regular use for trade. The square hole enabled them to be easily
strung onto leather cords in units of 1,000 (the main purchasing unit
of the time) for easy transportation. Many believe that the outer, round shape
symbolized heaven, while the square hole represented earth.If you missed this coin when released, now is the perfect time to add it to your collection, while we have a few available. Long sold-out at the mint, we have the Chinese Lucky Cash Coin, featuring an Oriental Dragon, available at a great price! 
Chinese Dragon and Unique Gold Orb
This Polish silver proof, issued for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, is one of the most
unique coins we've ever seen. The globe (or orb) extends 10
mm above (and below!) the surfaces or faces of the coin!
The incredibly florid and intricate Chinese dragon design is something
you won't want to miss. There's no way to completely describe the effect, the only way to fully appreciate it is to see it in person, but it is dramatic and the only coin of its kind that we're aware of. This is sure to be a real attention-grabber when you display it! |

Good Fortune has smiled upon us, with the recent find of these 4 sold-out SMLs!
We recently acquired a small quantity of each of these hard-to-find Pure Silver Maple Leafs, each with applied technology and Oriental themes! All are mint-fresh and in their original (and for three of them, unique, red, egg-shaped) gift boxes with individually numbered certificates.  Rare Hologram Maple of Good FortuneThis unique Privy Mark Silver Maple Leaf coin features a special hologram rendition of the classic Canadian Silver Maple Leaf design, beautifully rendered in the RCM's proprietary hologram technology, and topped off with a privy mark! Appropriately, the privy mark (also executed in a hologram!) bears the Chinese characters translating as "Auspicious Maple".  2003 Hologram Maple of Good FortuneThis second Privy Mark Silver Maple Leaf of Good Fortune features a one-off design of three oriental-style maple leaves on a single branch - all beautifully rendered in the RCM's proprietary hologram technology! This maple design reflects the importance that luck, good fortune, blessings and auspiciousness all play in Chinese culture. Appropriately, the privy mark (also executed in a hologram!) bears the Chinese characters translating as "good fortune maple".  Laser-Engraved Maple Leaf of HopeThis rare Silver Maple Leaf is struck with a reverse proof finish and laser engraving to create an aesthetically superior, one-of-a-kind design! Each autumn, the maple tree loses its leaves, but does so in a panoply of color that expresses hope for its rebirth in the spring. This maple design expresses the hope for a better future, and appropriately, the privy mark bears the Chinese characters translating as "Maple of Hope". 
Hologram Maple of Long Life
