COIN HIGHLIGHTS

Ships individually in protective packaging
Consisting of 1/2 oz of 9999 Fine Gold
Obverse: Features an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
Reverse: Features Henry Hudson illustrated standing ashore, as he peers through a handheld telescope towards uncharted lands

Renowned for his exceptional navigational skills, and courageous appetite for exploration, Hudson has left a lasting legacy as one of the most prolific explorers in Canadian history. In an attempt to discover a northern passage to establish a trading route from Europe to Asia on behalf of The Dutch East India company, Hudson and his crew inadvertently traversed through, and discovered new routes that would be critical in both Canadian and North American history.

Hudson was also able to brave the unforgiving nautical territory of Northern Canada of Hudson’s strait in order to discover the enormous body of water that we now know as Hudson’s bay. The discovery of this route opened up landlocked areas of Canada to participate in the flourishing fur trade, contributing to the prosperity of the Nation. Hudson’s considerable achievements are celebrated on this stunning 1/2 oz 99.99 pure gold coin.

On the reverse side, Henry Hudson is illustrated standing ashore, as he peers through a handheld telescope towards uncharted lands. The background of the coin is elaborately designed, with a voyager ship, and a crew in a rowboat skillfully engraved within.

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. 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 1998.
