New York City 4 oz. Fine Silver Coin From Royal Canadian Mint Features 24k Gold-Plated Puzzle Pieces

Collectors know that the Royal Canadian Mint carries many unique coins, and its newest offering is made for puzzle lovers and fans of the Big Apple.

The Royal Canadian Mint has unveiled its latest numismatic offering, a stunning 4 oz. fine silver coin that celebrates 400 years of New York City. Designed to appeal to collectors, puzzle enthusiasts, and fans of the Big Apple, this coin is a unique and captivating tribute to the city's rich history and iconic landmarks.

Upon closer examination, the coin reveals intricate 24k gold-plated puzzle pieces that, when shifted, uncover the hidden emblems of New York City. On the coin's obverse, the Statue of Liberty stands proudly in the center, surrounded by four gold pieces that represent Times Square, the Empire State Building, Central Park, and Wall Street.

When these gold pieces are moved, they reveal the iconic sights that define each location: the Charging Bull at Broad Street, the yellow taxis of Times Square, a horse-drawn carriage in Central Park, and the traders on Wall Street. This clever design adds an interactive element to the coin, inviting collectors to uncover the city's secrets and engage with its numismatic tribute.

While the Royal Canadian Mint typically showcases coins from Canada, this particular coin originates from Barbados and carries a face value of $5. It is available for purchase on the Mint's website at a premium price of $699.95.

With an extremely low mintage of 400 pieces, this coin is set to become a rare and highly sought-after item among collectors. Its unique design, exceptional craftsmanship, and tribute to one of the world's most beloved cities make it a standout piece for any numismatic collection.

In addition to this captivating New York City coin, the Royal Canadian Mint has also released several other intricate collector items throughout the year. These include the stunning 3D "howling wolf" coin, which features a howling wolf in three dimensions on its reverse, and the "Dragonfly and the Bloom" coin, which showcases a 3D dragonfly and waterlily on its reverse.

For those seeking whimsical and festive additions to their collections, the Mint's cheerful Christmas coins, adorned with holiday motifs and symbols, are sure to bring joy and cheer to any numismatic display.
