Brant fought his first battle with the British when he was just a teenager. But this young warrior was also a visionary. Brant clearly understood that Native people faced inevitable change and united various nations to protect their interests.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eAs war chief of the Six Nations and a British military captain, Brant was respected by both sides.

He adopted a new culture without dishonouring his Native roots. Through his voice and his actions, Brant shaped much of Native Canada a truth that echoes throughout southwestern Ontario and in the town that bears his name.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eMintage:60,000\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eFinish: Proof\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eCertificate:serialized\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eArtist:Adapted from an original artwork by Laurie McGaw*\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51179768709252,"sku":null,"price":329.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/3447\/8468\/files\/MG_8397__63880.1697056545.1280.1280.jpg?v=1759814203","url":"https:\/\/www.westedmontoncoinandstamp.com\/products\/2007-c-n-a-proof-double-dollar-set","provider":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
