Hi Everyone. I was given a $100.00 Canadian Gold Coin a few years ago and I thought I had put it in my safety deposit box. Long story short, I have looked everywhere and cannot find it. I am looking to replace it however I am unsure exactly what it was. I have attached a picture of what it looked like as far as what it was packaged in. I remember at the time I received doing research on it and finding out there were two different versions of it. Both a 14K and a 22K gold version. Mine was the 14K version. Can anybody tell me if there were any other Canadian $100.00 gold coins that came in this type of packaging and had the two different versions? Thank-you to anybody who replies to my post.  |

I am not sure if this is in fact the coin I had. I know it was in a package like this and I am asking if any other $100.00 Canadian Gold Coins were packaged like this.

I think that the 22k only came in the square black velvet box set of 7 coins.
..and the 14k came like this..

Yes, that's the coin you had, the 1976 14K gold coin was the only $100 gold coin ever to be issued in a cardboard sleeve.

Thank-you so much. Now I have to search for a replacement. The sentimental value is gone but if my parents ever ask to see it again I would be devasted to tell them that I lost it.

in the link I provided you'll see one for auction..that is your best bet at not overpaying if you buy online. good luck! and hopefully the original one turns up sooner or later!...i bet it could as I doubt you'd have accidentally thrown it out or something.

Thanks! I will keep my eye on the auctions. Yes, I am really hoping it turns up one day. Not a high $$ value but high sentimental value.

Would $400.00 CDN be considered fair value for the 14k in the cardboard sleeve?

Mintage for the 14K version was 650,000 so you should be able to pick it up for spot or just above.
