2022 $200 Fine Gold Alexander Graham Bell Coin: A Golden Era of Innovation

Pay tribute to one of Canada's greatest innovators and inventors with this ultra-low-mintage $200 one-ounce fine gold coin marking the 175th anniversary of the birth of Alexander Graham Bell. The design features a portrait of the inventor in his later years when he was living and working in Nova Scotia. His experiments from this era are represented by schematic illustrations of the Silver Dart—the aircraft that achieved the first controlled, powered flight in Canada—and the record-setting HD-4 hydrofoil. The background wave design represents Bras d'Or Lake in Baddeck, Nova Scotia, where Bell designed and tested hydrofoils and aircraft in the 1890s and early 1900s. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

Alexander Graham Bell dedicated his life to solving challenges, whether it was sound transmission or aeronautics, leaving behind a legacy of innovation encompasses so much more than the telephone. Even in his later years, Bell remained committed to scientific exploration and discovery, and he continued to do innovative work in various fields, including aviation, which was his main interest in the 1890s and early 1900s. His Aerial Experiment Association (AEA), which was managed and funded by his wife Mabel, laid the groundwork for the development of aviation in Canada.
