2017 Canadian 150th Anniversary Vimy Ridge Commemorative One Dollar Coin

This item is a 2017 Canadian One Dollar circulation coin, commonly known as a 'Loonie', specifically a commemorative issue celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge. The physical characteristics indicate a round, metallic coin, likely composed of three-ply brass-plated steel, giving it a distinct golden-brassy hue. Although the exact dimensions are not measurable from the image, Canadian dollar coins typically measure about 26.5 mm in diameter and 2 mm in thickness. The coin is presented within a standard, clear plastic or Mylar coin flip, designed for protection and display, which causes some minor reflections but thankfully preserves the coin's surface. The visible reverse side of the coin features an intricate depiction of the Canadian National Vimy Memorial, showcasing the two imposing pylons atop the monument and the allegorical figure of 'Canada Bereft' (Mother Canada) at the crest, with other detailed sculptural elements at the base. The inscription 'CANADA DOLLAR' is clearly visible along the upper rim, following the coin's curvature. The coin appears to be in an uncirculated or near-uncirculated condition, exhibiting clear details and a good degree of original luster without significant signs of wear, scratches, or tarnishing. There are no obvious condition issues directly on the coin itself. Manufacturing details indicate it was produced by the Royal Canadian Mint as part of the special series issued in 2017 to mark Canada's 150th anniversary. This modern coin's craftsmanship is typical of standard circulation issues, with crisp striking and clear rendering of the design.
