2011 $300 Manitoba Provincial Coat of Arms Gold Coin

Historically, Manitoba has been known as Canada's "keystone province" for its geographical and economical importance—a fact that is reflected in the masonry collar worn by the unicorn in its coat of arms. Manitoba's coat of arms are centered on its provincial shield as a prominent element. It was granted in 1905 by King Edward VII and features a buffalo standing on a rock with the cross of St. George.

The helmet above the shield symbolizes Manitoba's co-sovereign status in Confederation. The beaver above the helmet has a royal crown on its back and is holding Manitoba's floral emblem (Anemone patens). The provincial motto on the scroll means "glorious and free," and the wavy lines above symbolize Manitoba's waterways with grain fields (left) and white spruce forests (right). The seven prairie crocuses in the centre pay homage to Manitoba's multicultural character.
