2017 Pure Gold $250 Proof Coin - Kaleidoscope of Colour

This 2017 $250 pure gold coin issued by the Royal Canadian Mint captures autumn's kaleidoscope of colours, allowing one to experience Canada's seasonal scenery at its finest.  A gentle breeze, a cascading leaf… Gazing up from the base of a towering maple tree, one has a new appreciation for the stately beauty of Canada's ever-changing landscape, where a vaulted canopy of burgundy, red, yellow and orange leaves sways overhead. This pure gold coin has a limited and extremely low mintage of only 150 pieces.  As a pure gold coin struck by the Royal Canadian Mint, this item is HST/GST exempt.     

The reverse design by Canadian artist Emily S. Damstra explores the stunning beauty of an autumn day in Canada, but from a different perspective: from the base of a towering maple tree. The viewer's gaze naturally wanders up the ridged trunk of the engraved tree towards the branches, which splay out overhead to support the lush canopy of foliage overhead. The application of paint over the engraved leaves recreates nature's spellbinding display of autumn hues, which range from a deep crimson red to the lightest yellow. Peeking out from between this eye-catching mix of colours is the coin's surface, which adds a golden gleam that mimics sunlight on this tranquil day. The addition of three maple leaves-each one coloured differently from the other-only adds to this immersive viewing experience as they seemingly float down towards the viewer, softly tumbling in the gentle autumn breeze. Engraved in the tree trunk are the face value "250 DOLLARS", the word "CANADA", and the year "2017".
