Does anyone of you guys own a Bimetallic Maple Leaf?
Would you mind posting a pic?

Thanks,
MM

From Wikipedia:

Bimetallic Maple Leaf

As a way of commemorating 25 years as an industry leader in bullion coins, the Royal Canadian Mint created a unique six-coin set. It was a new bimetallic maple leaf, set in bullion finish (a brilliant relief against a parallel lined background). The six-coin set was the first to include the 1⁄25 oz Maple Leaf denomination. Each coin included a double-date of 1979–2004, and the 1 oz coin featured a commemorative privy mark. All coins were packaged in a black leather presentation case with a black velour insert, along with a certificate of authenticity.

    Thanks!
    I thought it was the other way around, with a gold ring on the outside.
    Nothing special, imo.

    The angel is very nice!
    I also like the Library of Congress, would love to own one.

    But...which was the first country to issue a bimetallic coin for circulation? image

    Might be Britain in 1684.

    I thought it was Italy with its 500 Lire! Maybe what I read was referring to the modern times.
