Product Overview
First issued "Proof Cameo" set was the highest quality coins struck by the Royal Canadian Mint in 1981.  These coins are "Proof" quality, the finest coins minted.  They are all double struck coins produced from specially prepared dies.  The fields (that is, the flat background areas on the coins) have a bright deep mirror finish, while the design and portrait of the Queen have a white frosted finish.  This extremely attractive effect is referred to as a "cameo proof", and can only be obtained in the Proof Sets.

This set includes all six denominations from the one cent through to the dollar. The fifty cent coin included; features the Canadian Coat-of-arms.  

The dollar design features a Native Canadian and a Voyageur (a travelling agent for a fur company), paddling a canoe past a small island with two wind swept trees. The vertical lines in the background represent the northern lights.  

This high quality coin set comes presented in a custom mahogany finish display case.
