Description
CANADA: (1911-1936) King George V 1912 Gold Canadian 5 Dollar. This highly sought after coin is one of the first ever gold coins to be produced in Canada! As they were released in such limited numbers they have always commanded great interest from collectors! Minted between 1912-1914 and with only two denominations the five dollar and the ten dollar the price has sky rocketed in recent years. This Stunning example features one of my personal favorite portraits of the Crowned head of King George V, lettering GEORGIVS V DEI GRA REX ET IND IMP. REVERSE: The coin depicts the De facto Coat of Arms adopted in 1868; this was the first symbol of Canada to appear on a coin. Canada. Good Very Fine.
