30.75g Silver Coin 2021 Canada $25 125th Anniversary of the Klondike Gold Rush
“Gold!” It was the golden promise that lured more than
30,000 fortune seekers to Yukon’s Klondike region, and you get a sense of the
experience with this pan-shaped (concave) pure silver coin. This is one of the
enduring romantic images of the Klondike Gold Rush, and the gold-plated nuggets
engraved at the bottom of your pan evoke this critical moment. The influx of
gold rushers, however, also forever altered the land, uprooting and repressing
the traditional ways of living of the Indigenous peoples who lived in the area
for millennia prior to the arrival of settlers. Indigenous communities living
in what became Yukon still grapple with this legacy today.
Shaped like a prospector’s pan! Selective gold plating
frames this snapshot of the past and adds a realistic gleam to this gold
discovery. Order today!

Design:
Framed by a gold-plated rim, your coin’s concave-shaped
reverse features a design by RCM engraver Matt Bowen. A combination of engraved
details and multiple frostings help capture the look of the steel pans used by
those who went panning for gold during the Klondike Gold Rush (1896-1899).
Water pouring out of the pan reveals gold-plated nuggets and flecks, which are
engraved at the bottom of the pan. The reverse includes the words “CANADA” and
“KLONDIKE 1896-2921” to commemorate the 125th anniversary of the discovery that
sparked the gold rush. The obverse features a face value of “25 DOLLARS” and
the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
