2010 Special Royal Canadian Numismatic Association Souvenir Packaging Proof Set - Saint John, New Brunswick, Limited to 200 Sets
The Royal Canadian Mint is proud to present the 2010 proof set of Canadian coinage. This is the only set available that features both the commemorative silver dollar selectively gold plated, and the aureate dollar depicting the common loon.

The coin features HMCS Sackville, the last surviving corvette and living memorial to the Royal Canadian Navy, its pennant number (K-181) clearly visible on its hull. The Canadian Navy's motto "Ready Aye Ready/ Pret Oui Pret" in morse code surrounds the design.
