Fantastic Niobium and Silver Coin from Canada - Poinsettia



This beautiful coin is from the Flowers in Canada Series, Poinsettia.  This is the third coin in the series.  The coin consists of an outer ring of silver with a niobium center.  The coin has a denomination of five dollars, but is not intended to circulate.  This is a collector coin.

This coin comes in a box from the Royal Canadian Mint, and is accompanied by a serialized Certificate of Authenticity.

This coin is struck with a proof strike, and has a very low mintage of just six thousand.  This has to be a coin worth considering for any collector.
