1.8 Year of the Sheep — 1/2 oz Silver

Front Side:

Back Side:

Description

The year 2015 is ruled by the Sheep. The creative Sheep personality embodies wealth, warmth and loveliness. Good things seem to come to the Sheep naturally because of its irresistibly good nature. The Sheep rarely speaks its mind. It will go with the flow and only object when things aren't going its way. Push too hard and it will react—decisively! The gregarious Sheep is an eternal romantic. It adores being showered with love and attention.

The Year of the Sheep also ruled 1907, 1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991 and 2003. However, people born in January or February should consult the Chinese lunar calendar. New Year does not automatically fall on January 1st. This celebration is better known as the Spring Festival and coincides with the first day of spring—a date that shifts from year to year depending upon the lunar cycle and solar year.

The perfect gift for someone born in the Year of the Sheep! Order yours today!

However, people born in January or February should consult the Chinese lunar calendar. New Year does not automatically fall on January 1st.

From June 6 to July 5, 2015, the best female soccer teams in the world will be playing across the nation in Edmonton, Moncton, Montréal, Ottawa, Winnipeg and Vancouver as Canada hosts the FIFA Women's World CupTM/MC.

It’s all in your head. “Heading” is one of soccer’s most distinctive moves. It’s critical for intercepting the ball or changing its trajectory midair in order to gain control of the play.

1.41 Silver Coin — Maple of Prosperity

Packaging:

Back Side:

Description

Symbolism is an inherent part of Chinese culture, both in the written and spoken language. While many of its modern characters serve as visual symbols of their own, the playful use of phonetics and puns bring added meaning and imagery to each message conveyed; such is the case with this intricate coin, which conveys a blessing of prosperity upon its owner.

Along with luck and longevity, traditional Chinese beliefs hold that prosperity is one of life’s greatest blessings and a cornerstone for the ideal life. This design artfully brings together detailed visual symbols and popular wordplay in an expressed wish for “abundance.”

Fish have long represented “abundance” or “surplus” due to their similarly pronounced characters; and as a prolific producer of eggs, the carp is a particularly auspicious symbol with its character’s pronunciation resembling that of “profit” and “power.” In a lucky grouping of three, carp are beautifully depicted on your coin’s reverse as they jump out of the water (in itself symbolic of continuous abundance), which is represented by a repetitive pattern of rippling water that frames the reverse image. This thoughtful, intricate design by Canadian artist Albert Ng expresses the notion of “gaining profits in succession” and also features a beautiful hologram of a maple leaf that celebrates Canada’s Chinese communities.

1.42 Year of the Horse 1 oz Silver Coin 2014

Front Side:

Back Side:

Description

The year 2014 is ruled by the Horse. The Horse personality embodies life, liberty and happiness. He's amazingly agile, physically and mentally; a master problem-solver. The horse will often saunter in with an ingenious and practical solution—and often charge ahead before the rest of the group can catch up. The Horse can be impatient, but he's also forgiving and kind.

The Year of the Horse also ruled 1906, 1918, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990 and 2002. However, people born in January or February should consult the Chinese lunar calendar. New Year does not automatically fall on January 1st. This celebration is better known as the Spring Festival and coincides with the first day of spring—a date that shifts from year to year depending upon the lunar cycle and solar year.

1.46 Silver Dollar Proof Set — First World War

Description

A wave of patriotism and enthusiasm greeted the news in Canada, where many believed the war would be a short and glorious campaign. While pre-war Canada had a sizeable militia, it had a small standing army of only 3,110 men. Sam Hughes, Minister of Militia and Defence, moved quickly to mobilise and equip Canada's military contribution to the world stage.

Across the Dominion, men of different backgrounds flocked to recruiting stations. Many were recent British immigrants or native-born Canadians of British stock, but there were also more than 1,000 French Canadians, many members of the First Nations, along with non-British immigrants and black Canadians.

Within two months of the onset of war, 33,000 Canadian volunteers were in training at the newly constructed Valcartier camp near Quebec City. These men formed the First Contingent of the Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF), which became the largest single movement of Canadians when they – along with 7,000 horses – set sail for Britain in October. Also accompanying them on this voyage were the "Blue Puttees," a contingent of 500 soldiers from Newfoundland and Labrador, which was a separate British colony before it joined Canada in 1949. These fathers, husbands, sons and brothers formed the first wave of Canadian troops that would engage in this world conflict.

By 1916, Canada was able to field an army corps of four divisions at the front. Eventually commanded by a Canadian, Lieutenant-General Sir Arthur Currie, the Canadian Corps won laurels on the Somme and at Vimy Ridge, Hill 70, Passchendaele, and the battles that took place in the decisive last hundred days of the war. Women also played a key role, with 2,504 Nursing Sisters serving overseas as part of the Canadian Army Medical Corps. Together, their exemplary courage and the contributions made on the battlefields helped Canada come of age as a nation.

The Proof Silver Dollar Coin

Designed by Canadian artist Bonnie Ross, your proof silver dollar depicts a couple's emotional farewell at a train station, where the first wave of volunteers is boarding a train bound for the Valcartier camp. Time stands still for this couple as they savour one last embrace before his departure, both of them uncertain of the future that lies ahead. It is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who answered the call of duty, and their loved ones who remained on the home front.

1.47 Superman Comic Book Covers #1

Front Side:

Back Side:

Description

The reverse image recreates the 2011 cover of Action Comics #1, and features Superman as he runs from the authorities through the streets of Metropolis. The original artwork introduced a more modern take on a young Superman; wearing denim jeans and boots, Superman still maintains elements from his traditional costume with a blue shirt, red cape and the iconic 'S' shield emblazoned across his chest. Vibrant colour enhances the engraved portrait of Superman, even adding a red glow to the streaks caused by bullets that do little to slow him down. A series of concentric circles frame the reverse, adding depth to the overall design and creating the illusion that Superman is racing out from the coin at breakneck speed towards the viewer.

1.51 Cosmology: Austrian Mint

Front Side:

Description

This year’s highly anticipated bimetallic niobium and silver coin from the Austrian Mint features “Cosmology”. It fittingly illuminates the new year with two colours: blue and gold. Cosmology connects all the parts of the universe as a whole, and follows the evolution of it from beginning to end. The blue and gold colours of the Cosmology coin are not the result of colours applied to the coin but rather the refraction of light on an extremely thin, transparent oxide layer.

The reverse of the coin features the “European Extremely Large Telescope” or E-ELT that is scheduled for completion in 2022. This will be the largest telescope ever, anywhere in the world, and will feature a 39 metre, or almost 130 foot mirror at its base. It will be four times larger than any telescope currently in use. The details of the telescope on the coin overlap from the outer silver ring into the blue niobium core. Some of the planets known to us such as Jupiter are detailed in the design. The European side of earth is also detailed on the coin.

The obverse illustrates the all-encompassing field of cosmology, i.e. the whole galaxy: planets, stars, satellites, deep space and everything therein. This side of the coin also bears the country of issue “Republik Oesterreich” Republic of Austria, the face value of 25 euros and the year of issue 2015.

Both sides of this coin were designed and engraved by Mint engraver Helmut Andexlinger.

This new two-coloured coin is minted to a maximum of 65,000 pieces in Special Uncirculated quality only. The coin contains 9 grams of 900 Fine Silver in its outer ring and 6.5 grams of 998 pure niobium, and has a total diameter of 34 mm. Each piece is encapsulated, boxed and comes complete with a numbered certificate guaranteeing its authenticity.
