All coins in your Premium Proof Set exhibit the highest quality finish (Proof) produced by the Royal Canadian Mint:
• Hand Polished! The field (flat background) has a highly hand polished mirror-like finish
• Four finishes! The relief (raised foreground) incorporates the use of four (4) different finishes which beautifully accentuate the design
• The dies used to strike your coins have been polished with a mixture containing diamond powder to ensure that the exquisite details are maintained on the coins during striking
• To maintain the highest quality in your set, only 1000-3000 coins have been struck per die
• Individually Pressed! Each of your coins will have been individually and delicately hand fed into and out of the coining press
• Hi-Def! All your coins will have been double struck at lower striking speeds, to give high definition and contrast between the field and the relief
About the Design:
• You will enjoy the intricate detailing on the Proof Dollar depicting a British sergeant, a Voltigeur Canadien and an Iroquois warrior wearing historically accurate uniforms and approaching the invader with unity of purpose to defend the border and colonies they represent
About the Package:
• Your set will include a numbered certificate with detailed coin specifications – your proof of ownership for this low mintage premium Proof Set and evidence that each coin has been individually inspected by our resident quality assurance specialists
• This set comes in genuine black leather case and custom beauty box - at no additional cost to you
The proof set is a perennial favourite and great gift idea that can be cherished and shared with your friends and loved ones forever and is a must have for all Canadian military history enthusiasts.
This is one of those sets of coins that gives you something to boast about...not too many people will have one of these sets and many more would like to own one...may be one of those future "Key" sets that sky rockets in value and price.

A Keepsake Love the Silver Penny -- A design that is well worth saying " Farewell to the Penny " A Historic part of Canadian History. Can't wait for the arrival of other coins related to the war of 1812

Well-presented; protective plastic cover is a plus; coins are most attractive; gold accents are a great idea

I only bought 2 sets should have bought more. I will add a couple of more sets from dealers. This is truly a great set and a person cannot go wrong collecting such sets. I don't find an investment like this expensive. I hope you continue with these 99.99% Silver sets and please keep the set low editions.

Everybody seems to have one but me,they keep promising it to me ,but I have not rec'd after Months!Losing faith in the Mint, and rightly so.I have never been mistreated so poorly by such a respectable Organization,it is SAD!I should be compensated for this all summer wait.I have been without over $250 U.S dollars and all I want is some recognition for the trouble and worry I have endured!A 2012 Maple leaf with the leaning tower of Pisa would be nice!How about it Mr.Brunet,Do I just wait indefinitely,or what?Throw me a Bone to appease me Please!I have been Patient for a long Long Time!Do you compensate Master club members when they are treated like a stooge? I have tried everything,and now I am letting others know what I and others are going through!I was going to buy more coins already,but NOT UNTIL I recieve what I PREPAID for!Come On!I should get the first Perfect set that is made and another coin for the interest of the cash I paid Months ago!That is what a classy institution such as yours should do.I used to get things in 5 days not months!I know you are trying hard to fix the problem,but since I ordered this Wonderful proof set I have dreamed of owning my father has died,an animal of 18 years has almost died,and several other negative events,yet I am allways thinking of the proof set I so Very Much want sent to me and something else to make me feel like I am not just Joe schmo!Please I am Begging,Yes Begging you to send me the finest proof set when it is ready so I can get on with my life!
