#### **ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT**

The Royal Canadian Mint is known as one of the most reputable mints in the world. The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. The Royal Canadian Mint is renowned for producing some of the highest quality and purity of gold and silver bullion coins and bars in the world. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1999.

These coins are discounted as they may be tarnished, scratched or visibly handled. Weight and purity are guaranteed but year and condition are subject to availability. Each issue maintains a similar, but not always identical, design on both the obverse and reverse.
