The need for speed is strong among the seven million Canadians who share a passion for the heart-thumping, bumper-to-bumper action of NASCAR® racing! While many race tracks have their own claim to fame, Daytona International Speedway depicted on this fine silver medallion is foremost in the minds of fans and drivers alike, as the home of NASCAR®'s prestigious opening race: the revered DAYTONA 500.
The reverse design by Canadian artist Julius Csotonyi features an engraved rendition of the iconic Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida. With the famous checkered flag waving in the background, the image provides a detailed glimpse at the newly expanded grandstand that is set to open in January 2016. The obverse provides an overhead view of the sprawling motorsports stadium; in the top right corner, the famous Speedway’s front stretch is dotted with race cars as the DAYTONA 500 is underway—a momentous start to what will surely be another exhilarating NASCAR® season!
The medallion comes packaged in a unique and colourful box that conveys the thrill and excitement of a NASCAR® event in the new motorsport stadium. Canadian fans, this is an opportunity to own an exclusive NASCAR®-themed collectible that is sure to be a hit!
