SMALL BUT MIGHTY GOLD CHIPMUNK

Coins-World | Longstrider

Well, I don't usually buy bullion coins but I couldn't resist this one. It's a 2014 0.5 pure gold Canadian Chipmunk. It's number one in a yearly set. I'm anxiously awaiting the next one, which I already purchased from the Royal Canadian Mint. I'll put it up as soon as it arrives. I was going to put them up together but it hasn't shown up as yet. Anyway, this coin has a mintage of 10,000. It has a diameter of 11 mm. It has a serrated edge and comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity.  As stated, it weighs a mighty 0.5 grams, so hold it with both hands. The reverse was designed by Tony Bianco and the obverse of Her Majesty the Queen was done by Susanna Blunt. Probably a silly purchase but I like him!
