From the highest echelon of NHL greatness to a casual game of pickup in the street, hockey weaves the very fiber of this nation. This beautiful coin features a delightful coloured design of four boys and a family dog engaged in some lively play on a frozen pond. The wintry scene brings back memories of hockey’s early days in Canada where settlers would take to the ice for a friendly game of pickup to break the monotony of the cold. It’s a pastime that illustrates Canada’s renowned stalwart hardiness, and continues to play out to this day as children both young and old take to frozen ponds to live this idyllic scene in Canada’s rural communities.
A touching keepsake for family and friends who may have provided the perfect country setting to create childhood memories and hockey dreams. No matter what your skill level was, this coin will bring back special memories of how great it was to play hockey outside on a pond.
Limited to 8,500 worldwide, a great gift for any sport enthusiasts.
