I am wondering if anyone knows the specs on this coin/token because I cannot find anything except the history of it online. I would like to know the weight, purity, etc. if anyone knows. Thank you. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

I do have the original black/red case and insert however I understand that it had a serial number on the back which is no longer there. Report this Post to the Staff
kuh_85 Pillar of the Community Canada 2366 Posts	Posted 05/25/2015 10:31 pm It's a medal/medallion, not a coin as it doesn't have a denomination. Which is probably why it's hard to find information on it. Sorry, I don't deal much with these and haven't seen one before. http://www.galtmuseum.com/permalinkM/P19860169000/ http://en.allexperts.com/q/Coin-Col...edallion.htm http://culture.alberta.ca/paa/whats...2-002SF.aspx http://www.ebay.com/itm/1980-Rare-A...047675.l2557 Report this Post to the Staff

Unfortunately none of the resources specifies if it is pure/solid gold. I will take it down to my local coin dealer as he is a collector and might be able to shed some light on the specifics.
