General Description | The second-ever triangular coin by the Royal Canadian Mint features a selective hologram! This coin strikes a chord with all Canadians. Music lovers quickly notice how it’s shaped like a guitar pick—the perfect tie-in to the Six String Nation Guitar. Highlights: With its unique shape and theme, this coin is as popular as previous irregular-shaped coins that quickly sold out. Crafted with the distinctive specimen finish, its design evokes the beauty of a hand-crafted guitar, complete with guitar strings “resonating” inside the selective hologram. |
Obv. Description | In a partially enclosed circle the image of Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth II appears in her senior pose sans crown. To the left of her is her name Elizabeth II and to the right is D.G. Regina which is abbreviated latin for Long Live The Queen. Underneath is the Royal Canadian Mint Mark quite plainly visible. |
Rev. Description | The inlaid maple leaf and intricately crafted representation of the Six String Nation Guitar with a selective hologram of the logo used to symbolize its six strings. |
