The summer cottage retreat is as much a part of Canadian life as maple syrup and Mounties! This beautiful coin celebrates the great tradition of getting away from city life to enjoy Canada’s beautiful woodlands and fresh water.

This coin is a great gift and collectible that celebrates Canada’s natural wonders and unique iconography.

Canadian artist Claudio D’Angelo’s design features a scene from the perspective of someone sitting in the bow of a canoe. A happy family – a man in a Muskoka chair on a dock, and four children playing in the cool lake waters – waves in greeting. Your coin also features an extremely detailed background of a balcony-fronted cabin, a smooth rocky outcropping of a wooded shoreline, a sailboat floating in the distance, and a sky filled with stylized sunbeams. Framing the entire image is a polished outer band engraved with the words “CANADA,” the date “2013,” the face value of “10 DOLLARS” and a small stylized Muskoka chair symbol. Comes with a serialized Certificate of Authenticity.
