Quebec's 400th anniversary!
Four hundred years ago, Samuel de Champlain built a fur trading post on the St. Lawrence River (Quebec). The location he chose for his "habitation was a popular spot where the Algonquin people came to fish and to barter.
Kebec (where the river narrows) quickly became one of North America slargest maritime cities. Today, its unique character as the only walled city on the continent continues to draw people from around the world. Celebrate its 400th anniversary with the 2008 Proof Silver Dollar, which captures the fascinating story behind Quebec City's founding.
This spectacular set is an irresistible tribute to Quebec City's 400th anniversary. With its unique silver dollar, set against a stunning presentation of all of Canada s traditional circulation coins in sterling silver (except one-cent and one-dollar coins) with a proof finish, it s an incomparable collectible that will be a joy to collect-and receive!
Highlights:
For the first time ever at the Mint, selective gold plating has been meticulously applied to the reverse and obverse of the silver dollar in this set-yet another innovative touch!
