Description: The Royal Canadian Mint calls these "Specimen Sets," and the Charlton Standard Guide to Canadian Coins refers to the finish as "brilliant relief on a parallel lined background." Personally, though, I think the 'specimen' finish on these coins renders something like a a sort of 'reverse proof' look. Take a look at the pictures and you be the judge! In any case, these sets are really very nice and are a more affordable way to collect Canada's regular-issue coins than the more prestigious "proof sets." The 2006 set includes seven coins - the 1c, 5c, 10c, 25c, 50c, $1 and $2 coins. It also features a special limited edition version of the $1 coin which features the Snowy Owl rather than the usual loon. I believe the Specimen Set for 2006 was the only way to obtain this version of the $1 coin. The set comes in the original packaging as issued by the RCM, an outer, black card box featuring the RCM logo and a sticker identifying the contents, an inner "bookcase" lens with red leatherette outer surfaces and velour inner surfaces and, of course, the certificate of authenticity. All are pictured above in the photographs, which depict the actual set you will receive. The coins and packaging are all in excellent shape! Buy yours today!
