Description

200th Anniversary of Descending the Fraser River
Today, whitewater rafting is thrilling recreation, but two hundred years ago, it was a key way to get around. Imagine yourself as an explorer with the fur trade searching for routes to the Pacific Ocean and native guides telling you the river you want to investigate is madness.

That's precisely the quandary Simon Fraser faced before he descended the river that now bears his name. Now, two hundred years later, this gorgeous 14-karat gold coin brings the challenges of Fraser's expedition to life - confronting rapids in a birch bark canoe with unreachable banks high on both sides!

Highlights:
Extremely fine detailing and a proof finish combine to create a 14-karat gold masterpiece of superior sculpting that's limited to a very desirable 5,000 coins worldwide.

Reverse:
Simon Fraser directs his expedition down the river that now bears hisname; its towering banks alluding to the magnitude of his venture. In the background, a portion of a massive birch bark canoe and its cargo.
This coin is part of the 100-dollar coin collection which began in 1976. A coin has been released every year since then.
