The eagle, representing American forces, stands powerfully opposed to the lion, who symbolizes the British forces. Between them stretches the shield of military conflict, upon which is emblazoned the maple leaf, signifying the shared resolve of the English- and French-speaking Canadian volunteers and First Nations warriors who worked together to bravely defend their land and ways of life. The coin is embossed with the commemorative dates “1812–2012” and the bilingual hallmark of the Royal Canadian Mint’s renowned purity and craftsmanship, “9999” and “FINE GOLD ¼ OZ OR PUR.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eActual Size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eSpecial Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e Unique design in heraldic style reminiscent of a Coat of Arms, created by artist Cathy Bursey-Sabourin who also designed the Coat of Arms of Canada, and officially vetted by the Chief Herald of Canada.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eThe first ¼-oz 99.99% pure gold proof coin offered as a single coin (not part of a set) from the Royal Canadian Mint.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eProduct Specifications:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eItem Number:119384\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eUPC:6-23932-04114-1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eFace Value:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e10 dollars\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eMintage:2,000\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eComposition:99.99% pure gold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eWeight (g):7.80\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eDiameter (mm):20\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eEdge:Serrated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eFinish:Proof\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eCertificate:Serialized\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eArtist:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eCathy Bursey-Sabourin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003ePackaging:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eCoin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint branded maroon clamshell case lined with black flock and protected by a black sleeve.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eAdvertising Date: April 9, 2012\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eLaunch Date: April 16, 2012\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51179019042948,"sku":"LIVE119384","price":2250.45,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/3447\/8468\/files\/1812_2012_1__34228.1585331296.1280.1280.png?v=1759774044","url":"https:\/\/www.westedmontoncoinandstamp.com\/products\/copy-of-2012-10-pure-gold-coin-the-war-of-1812","provider":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
