Own a piece of 1812 history! A magnificent tribute to a great leader presented in 99.99% pure silver!The great Shawnee Chief Tecumseh’s (c.1768-1813) life has fed the imagination of scholars, artists, and poets for 200 years. His death has immortalized him as a legendary Canadian hero, and it is important to remember his objectives: Tecumseh fought heroically out of a desire to build an independent homeland for his people. Tecumseh’s name meant both “shooting star” and “crouching panther” as he was a dynamic leader and warrior. This coin is a tribute to the heroes of the War of 1812 and will make an ideal gift for historians and admirers of Aboriginal history. Special features: • Includes an engraved and painted Government of Canada War of 1812 logo. • Crafted in fine silver (99.99% pure). Design: This tribute commemorative coin features a portrait of Tecumseh set against an intricately engraved background composed of the words “The War of 1812” in both English and French. Featured in the design is the engraved and painted Government of Canada War of 1812 logo: stylized 1812 typography on a stylized maple leaf with crossed ecru swords behind. Packaging:The coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint branded maroon clamshell case lined with flock and protected by a customized “beauty box”, as shown in the accompanying photos. A serial numbered Certificate of Authenticity, issued by the Royal Canadian Mint, accompanies this coin and provides proof that this coin is one of only 10,000 minted, and has been carefully inspected by the resident quality control specialists at the Mint.

Be sure to add me to your favorites list! “Unsearched” — All of the coins offered in this listing are “unsearched”. Many coin dealers “search” all coins when they are received from the Mint. They "cherry-pick" the best coins. Then submit them to be graded, certified, and slabbed by PCGS, NGC, ANACS, etc. These graded and certified coins are then sold at higher, premium prices. When a dealer searches coins, those that they sell in original Mint packaging are only lesser quality coins. Photos: When a listing offers multiples of the same coin, one coin is picked at random and photographed. Since all coins offered in that listing are essentially identical, the coin photographed is representative of all coins offered. Surface areas that appear black on some proof coin photos are actually highly polished, mirror-bright metal reflecting the color of the camera. We often include proof coin photos with the coin slightly tilted to better depict the mirror bright surfaces. However, tilting the coin may resulting one side being slightly out of focus. Our goal is to provide clear, high definition photos that accurately represent the coin(s) offered in each of our eBay listings. Whenever possible, we use actual photos of our coins, rather than just stock artwork from the Mint. We frequently update and upgrade the photos that appear with our listings, using improved cameras and lenses and better lighting. We will honor your requests for additional photos as quickly as our schedule permits.
