Detailed description
"Great Explorers" series - Henry Hudson - 2015
Exclusive gold coin issued by the Royal Canadian Mint in 2015 in top quality proof in purity of the purest 99.99% gold. This coin is the fourth of six coins issued from 2012 to 2017 in the Great Explorers series.
The reverse of the coin depicts seafarer and explorer Henry Hudson on his last Arctic voyage. Hudson is standing on an ice floe, looking through a telescope that points directly into the center of the map of Hudson Bay located on the right. Below the map, Hudson's ship, the Discovery, is anchored in the bay, and in front of it is a floating boat with sailors at sea. An Elizabethan nautical compass (wind rose) is depicted to the left behind the Hudson. The exact place of Henry Hudson's birth and his youth are not known. However, it is believed that he was born in London in 1570 and began sailing ships in his youth. The place and time of his death can also only be roughly estimated, from the year and place where he, along with his seventeen-year-old son and seven other crew members, were put into a boat by the mutinous crew of his ship in 1611 and left to their fate. The coin is inscribed "CANADA", with the year of issue "2015" on the left, the artist's initials "LM" on the right and the face value "200 DOLLARS" below the design. The obverse shows a traditional portrait of Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain by Susanna Blunt with the inscriptions "ELIZABETH II" and "D G REGINA".
The coin comes in a burgundy leatherette box along with a numbered certificate of authenticity in a limited edition of only 2000 pieces for the entire world!
