The 2010 Winter Olympic Games were hosted in Vancouver, Canada. To celebrate the Royal Canadian Mint (RCM) created a 3-piece Olympic Gold Maple Leaf Coin Series (which ran in 2008, 2009, and 2010). Struck in fine .9999 gold bullion, these gold coins’ gold bullion content and purity are guaranteed by the Canadian government. With a legal tender face value of $50 CAD, these gold bullion coins are traded based on their pure gold content and limited availability.

The front of this gold coin draws its inspiration from hockey, one of the most popular winter sports. It bears a burly hockey player as he maneuvers the puck with his hockey stick. From the dynamic angles of his body to the detailed rendering of his helmet and uniform, sports enthusiasts will appreciate the level of skill required to realistically capture this player in action. On both sides of the hockey player are two of Canada’s iconic maple leaves as a symbol of national pride. The Canadian spirit is further displayed in the above logo incorporating the coin’s mintage 2010 year along with the hosting cities of Whistler and Vancouver. The reverse side of the coin has a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
