Description
Canada: 2021 $50 The Avro Arrow 5 oz Pure Silver Coin
Design: Designed by Canadian artist Neil Hamelin, your coin's reverse is an artistic tribute to Canada's most famous aircraft, the Avro CF-105 Arrow. The gold-plated supersonic interceptor jet appears to be too fast and too powerful to be contained on the reverse, where a unique perspective emphasizes its sleek profile. On the runway, the maple leaf-shaped shadow pays homage to the innovators who designed and built the iconic Arrow, which was, and remains, the pride of Canada. The obverse features a maple leaf pattern and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
