Experience a piece of maritime history with this exquisite 2025 $25 fine silver coin featuring the majestic tall ships motif of a three-masted schooner. Crafted from 99.99% pure silver and weighing 23.17 grams (0.745 ounces), this proof finish collectible showcases the elegance and engineering marvel of the tern schooner.
The reverse of the coin details the schooner's distinguished fore-and-aft sails, optimized for superior windward performance, a hallmark of Atlantic Canada's shipbuilding heritage between 1880 and 1920. This ship type was historically vital, replacing square-rigged ships in coastal trade with enhanced cargo capacity and smaller crews, akin to today's freight trucks.
Highlighted with selective colour, this coin perfectly captures the rigging, patent log, and overall beauty of the three-masted schooner. As the colour version of Coin #4 in the Tall Ships pure gold series, it is a truly rare and authentic collectible from Canada, ideal for investors and collectors seeking fine bullion with historical significance.
