A pair of coins have been released to pay homage to the famed Bluenose.
To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Bluenose, the Royal Canadian Mint is kicking off a year-long celebration with the launch of a new pair of silver and gold coins.
A pure gold $100 coin and a Proof Silver Dollar each share a photo of the vessel, which launched from the Smith and Rhuland shipyard in Lunenburg in 1921.
The vessel went on to become a prominent racing and fishing craft and cemented itself as a Nova Scotian and Canadian icon.
The coins are available for order by visiting mint.ca.
