Introducing Canada's 2006 Benchmark Microcoin. They will be sold in packs of 5. Each pack will contain 4 Antique Bronze coins and one LE Satin Gold coin for $25.00 CDN.

The top of the coin is beveled with a thickness in the middle of 3.5mm tapering to 3mm at the edge.

As you can see from the picture, they are just slightly smaller than a Canadian Quarter. Size: 22mm, thickness: 3.5mm

 

A total of 500 coins were produced in the following quantities:

 

* LE Satin Gold - 95

Thanks. I ordered some in a frenzy of patrionism. I'd love to see a full-sized Canadian benchmark with a little more detail. I am looking forward to these ones though!

 

I had considered doing a Canadian benchmark last year but they are so plain and nothing as fancy dancy as the US benchmarks that I decided against it. A smaller Canadian benchmark, though, such as this one, is a good way to go.

I didn't mention it but these are NOT a pre order.

 

They are in stock and ready to ship now!

 

Thanks

 

Also ordered a set - If they look half as nice in person as they do in the picture, they'll be WOW!

Well, mine arrived yesterday and they look TWICE as nice in person. For such a simple, plain design its hard to imagine how nice they really are. Sort of like Shaker furniture i guess.

 

Thanks guys
