The Canadian mint is rightly associated with “natural” coin collections – usually main theme of their coins is nature, in this case – animals. If you are looking for valuable coins from around the world – you will find them in Coins From World, both new releases and a bit older ones. We show the coin from 2008, the second part of an extraordinary, platinum collection.

Saber-toothed platinum 

Here you can order a coin issued in 2008 by the Royal Canadian Mint. Its face value is $ 300, but the market value is much higher. It weighs a bit over 31 grams and is distinguished by its material: a real platinum of 995/1000 fineness. Its big advantage is the noble minimalism of the project, characterised by the lack of unnecessary additions and the focusing on depicting the saber-toothed tiger (sabre-toothed). When talking about interesting visual features, we should point a proof stamp, a serrated rim, and a diameter of 30 millimeters.
