mcshilling Pillar of the Community Canada 9158 Posts	Posted 10/30/2016 3:23 pm Just read a news articular about this Silver coin to be unveiled here in Sault Ste. Marie on Nov. 1 It doesn't say time just in the morning and does not give a denomination. Has anyone heard anything? Also if they unveil it here do they have it for sale?

mcshilling Pillar of the Community Canada 9158 Posts	Posted 11/01/2016 1:29 pm Well I couldn't get in to the Unveiling it was for guests and invited people. I also found out they did not have any coins there. Went to the post office and bought one and went back and waited till it was over then went in. Roberta Bondar and friend Art Two Mint Reps Got my coin signed it should be the ONLY ONE the REP on the left is the other signature. Report this Post to the Staff

CC-Ottawa Pillar of the Community Canada 3690 Posts	Posted 11/01/2016 1:55 pm I believe the lady on the left is Christine Aquino Director, Communications Royal Canadian Mint. The woman on the right is Sandra Hanington, CEO, Preident and Master of the Mint. Report this Post to the Staff
mcshilling Pillar of the Community Canada 9158 Posts	Posted 11/01/2016 2:04 pm You are probably right CC they did tell me there names but I forgot you was you, that means the one on the right is the signature on the left side of the certificate with Bondar. Report this Post to the Staff
Silveroid Pillar of the Community Canada 6768 Posts	Posted 11/01/2016 2:08 pm Trully commemorative. Well done with the signature! The coin is convex, but I would try to display it in the "floating" frame.... Report this Post to the Staff

mcshilling Pillar of the Community Canada 9158 Posts	Posted 11/02/2016 3:37 pm It was in a meeting room that has the seats going uphill, a full class of aviation students, people she worked with here and other invited guests, so I guess 100 people. Report this Post to the Staff
