| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two Canada geese (Branta canadensis) depicted in full polychrome colour, rendered in vivid blue, white, and grey tones, soaring in flight to the left across a mirror-proof black field. A flock of smaller geese is visible in the upper field, also in colour. In the lower portion of the reverse, a fine incuse landscape vignette depicts rural Canadian farm buildings and conifers. The legend 'VANCOUVER 2010' curves along the upper rim, the denomination '75 DOLLARS' appears along the lower rim, and the engraver's initials 'KB' are visible in the lower left field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece belongs to the Royal Canadian Mint's "Canada's Forgotten Heroes" series, issued in 2007 to honor the sacrifice of Canadian soldiers in World War I. The geese motif references the iconic silhouette associated with the Western Front, where the sound of migrating geese overhead became one of the few natural constants for soldiers enduring the trenches. The coin's unusual bimetallic composition — a 14-karat gold alloy incorporating significant silver — was a deliberate RCM metallurgical choice to achieve a warmer, more muted surface tone distinct from standard bullion issues.
