This exquisite 22-karat gold coin is a unique and incomparable tribute to agriculture, one of Canada's founding and defining industries. Coaxing essential foodstuffs from the ground has been a major preoccupation since time immemorial. Canada's first pioneers were undeterred by this challenging land and managed to transform sustenance farming into one of the nation's major industries — with little or no mechanization and horses as their only power supply.
