The Maple Leaf Tartan

This limited-edition set features two of Canada's iconic national symbols: a 2013 50-cent coin and a swatch of the Maple Leaf Tartan. A 50-cent piece was the very first coin to be struck at the opening of the Ottawa Branch of Britain's Royal Mint by Governor General Earl Grey in 1908. In 1931, the Mint became a Government of Canada institution and was renamed the Royal Canadian Mint. With the exception of the centennial year, the 50-cent coin has featured the arms of Canada on the reverse since 1937. The official arms of Canada depict several symbolic images of Canada's heritage and are an official symbol of the sovereignty of the Government of Canada. The twoinscriptions "A Mari usque ad Mare" and "Desiderantes meliorem patriam," translate to "From sea to sea" and "They desire a better country, respectively.

The fabric is "The Maple Leaf Tartan", Canada's official tartan pattern. It was created by David Weiser in anticipation of Canada's Centennial celebrations in 1967. The green, gold, red and brown stripes represent the maple leaf's varied colors through the ever-changing Canadian seasons. While April 6 is officially Tartan Day in Canada, the Maple Leaf Tartan
can be worn anytime as a reflection of national pride or heritage.

This set is the first issue ofEveryday Canada collection.
The first set of the series, released in 2013, depicts the Maple Leaf Tartan.

Le tartan de la feuille d érable, 2013
Très belle pièce de 50 cent , accompagné d'un morceau de tissu arborant le couleur automnal de nos érable a sucre . Dans son petit présentoir en carton elle est très bien protégé par un plastique protecteur .
Quand au colis , il est arrivé dans les temps alloué et très bien emballé dans du papier bulle .
Merci pour votre vaste choix de produits de grande qualité et votre excellent travail et services a bientôt !!!!!!!
