3/4 oz 2016 National Heroes | Firefighters Silver Proof Coin

Firefighters are featured on the first silver coin in a new series that pays tribute to the dedicated first responders who work in our communities.

The reverse of the coin features a firefighter in full turnout gear walking away from a burning home.

In his hands he is carrying a dog rescued from the burning home.

The Royal Canadian Mint has announced that they will be donating $5 from the sale of every coin to the Red Cross Alberta Fires Appeal fund.

A terrific addition to your collection, or way to say thank you to the hero in your life.
