Big Ass Goose

Howdy folks

Today I have for you a 1 Canadian Dollar from 1967.

On the front is a big ass Canadian goose in flight. They are evil buggers that we get in England. They will chase you for anything. They are literally as evil as a bird can get!

Reverse of the coin: Queen Elizabeth II at 37 years old. Wearing a Tiara.
Year: 1967
Value: 1 Dollar
Currency: Dollar
Silver: 0.800
Weight: 23.33 grams
Diameter: 36.00mm
Thickness: 2.84mm

I picked this coin up as part of a set of 5 other Canadian coins that I will be showing on other posts so check them out if you like the bad ass goose.

The coin is 80% Silver and 20% Copper. What still catches me out with these coins is that the weigh a fairly hefty amount in your hand. They don't look heavy but they have a nice weighted feel when holding them. I am starting to get used to it and do appreciate the feel of quality that silver coins give off.

Queen Elizabeth is again on the back of this coin at the age of 37 years old. Now wearing a tiara instead of a sash which I find more normal. Had never seen her wearing a sash on a coin before till one of my previous posts.

This coin was released as part of a commemorative set celebrating the 100th anniversary of Canada.

Minted by the Royal Canadian Mint of Ottawa which is still producing quality coins to this date.
