I am very fond of ships on coins.

I know that many people share this fondness. I have a few coins depicting ships.

So, I will post a series called "Ships on Coins" and I will show all the coins that I have on this theme.

There will be no order of presentation or country of issue. As the coins are stored in several places, I will simply search on each place and publish those that I found.

The thirty fourth is a 2017 CAD $5 "Voyageur".

This CAD $5 coin has 99.99% pure silver, a metal weight of 31.1g and Brilliant Uncirculated finish. Its mintage was 250,000 units.

It celebrates 150 years of the Federation of Canada.

I know that it is not a ship on a coin, but I think it deserves to be shown here, in this series.

The reverse, engraved by Emanuel Otto Hahn, was taken from the circulating CAD $1 (1953-1966). It shows a voyageur and an aboriginal traveling by canoe, carrying bundles of which one bears the initials "HB" for Hudson's Bay Company.
