Have this in transit. Bought from Apmex on eBay using 10% off coupon (max $100): 2014 Canada C$50 9999 Five Blessings gold.
Bought as a baptismal gift for my first grandson/grandchild
This 1 oz Gold coin showcases a series of images representing the Five Blessings of traditional Chinese culture. In Chinese tradition, the Five Blessings encompass all aspects of life: "May your wishes come true," "May you have speedy success," "May every year bring a surplus," "May flowers bloom for prosperity" and "May your stock turn over like a spinning wheel."
The reverse of this .9999 fine Gold coin features a symbol for each of the Five Blessings: a bat for happiness, a deer for career success, cranes for long life, a magpie for joy and the Chinese character for a wish of good fortune. The obverse features the Susanna Blunt-designed likeness of Queen Elizabeth II, along with the face value and year.
This beautiful Gold coin would make a great collectible or a perfect gift for any loved one you wish blessings upon.
<< <i>Trozau, that is an awsome coin and such a wonderful gift for your grandchild. Just awsome! >>
Thanks. He is a very lucky kid (I did not get my first gold coin until I was 28). For a kid who is not even a year old, he is on his way to being a PM stacker. So far he has 2.2354 troy ounces of gold. We got him a 2014 UK proof Sovereign at birth, his parents got him a 2014 UK £100 Year of the Horse 9999 gold and now the 2014 Canada C$50 9999 Five Blessings gold.
