Five nines! Made from the highest standard of pure gold-more pure than any Klondike gold nugget-this 1 oz. numismatic treasure shares the same design as its 1 oz. gold bullion counterpart, but in a luminous proof finish. Its engraved depiction of a prospector using a rocker box hints at the journey from raw gold to coins-specifically, those issued by Canada's Mint, whose creation was accelerated by the events in the Yukon. This is the popular image of the Klondike, though not everyone benefitted from those boom days: many failed to strike it rich, and with the sudden influx of gold rushers came a series of sweeping changes that proved devastating to northern Indigenous communities and environments, leaving a complicated legacy that still reverberates today.
Our only 99.999% pure gold collector coin issued in 2022.
