Take a walk in any forest in eastern Canada and you are likely to spot an eastern chipmunk scurrying about in search of food. Acorns and nuts are its favourites, and it can pack away a surprising amount using the expandable pouches in its cheeks.
If acorns and nuts aren't available, the chipmunk will gladly take its fill of seeds, plants, fruits, berries, mushrooms, snails, insects–even small snakes! And of course, there's the bounty of peanuts it receives from campers eager to engage with this frisky visitor scampering about the picnic table.
All this frantic gathering is not merely play: it's essential to the chipmunk's survival as it spends the winter sleeping in its underground burrow and eating from its food cache. It takes a lot of energy to be the smallest member of the squirrel family–the perfect subject for our smallest pure gold coin.
The combination of including a cute chipmunk on a small pure gold coin is sure to be popular with coin enthusiasts. Don't be disappointed—order your coin today before they're all gone!
Special features:
• Your beautiful 11 millimetre 25-cent coin is 99.99% pure gold.
• Your coin includes exceptional engraving details and includes a beautiful proof finish (frosted raised elements on mirror background).
• Your coin is an affordable solution to start your gold coin collection.
• Your coin is 99.99% pure gold, GST/HST exempt, and has a limited worldwide mintage.
Design:
Your coin was designed by Canadian artist Tony Bianco and captures the eastern chipmunk's endearing expression with this side profile. The contrasting stripes along his arched back stand out as they lead down to the chipmunk's soft tail. The chipmunk pauses, his ears attentive for approaching sounds, as he holds his prize in his agile front paws: an acorn, which might soon be tucked away in the chipmunk's cheeks and brought back to his burrow.
Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with black beauty box.

Great looking coin and a good way to get into gold but with silver being so much cheaper you could get more precious metal if you bought silver. Great gift for someone to hold onto for years.

I usually collect silver coins but chipmunks are just adorable so I decided to purchase one of these, you need a magnifying glass to really see the details I will keep it but honestly it is too small to really enjoy.

This is perfect for all thum thar po' folks who could never invest in gold before...NOW they can finally say "I'm a gold investor!" d=O) A very nice design, amazingly tiny, and it is a prime example of the best possible quality that can be produced in Ottawa. (At the mint. Not that other place. Let's be honest, eh?)

Folks might be put off by the size, but it is .5 grams of gold, not an ounce. The artwork is outstanding. Keep up the great quality!!!!!
