2006 Canada 50-cent 1/25oz. Fine Gold Cowboy (TAX Exempt)

As is typical of coins from this year, the outer cardboard sleeve might have some light wear, and/or the capsule might have some minor scratches.

This original design by Canadian artist Michelle Grant depicts a contemporary saddle bronc with a rider and a stylized maple leaf underneath. The coin design celebrates not only the past but also the modern cowboy that remains a vital part of our future.
