Owner Comments:
Excellent white Canada First Releases Arctic Expedition Centennial (1913-2013) quarter with very strong strike, great luster, and no toning. A few very light contact marks and scratches are present commensurate with grade. Cost: $10.24 on 1/15/16 on eBay from E_Coins (e_coins). Note: Images are stock photos provided by the seller of an equivalent coin. Certification number of coin in photos is 17 digits off of that of actual coin.
Composition: 3-ply nickel-plated steel. Weight: 4.4 grams. Diameter: 23.88 mm. Edge type: reeded.
Reverse Description: The design shows three explorers and a dogsled team in the foreground, preparing “to take their first north-bound steps into uncharted territory,” according to the RCM. An antique compass fills the background. Ross’s BR initials, the inscriptions ARCTIC EXPEDITION 1913-2013 EXPÉDITION DANS L’ARCTIQUE and the denomination complete the design.
