This commemorative celebrates the once-familiar sight of a uniformed milkman bringing bottled dairy to the doorstep and the prepaid trade tokens once issued by local dairies, bringing cultural and historical significance to a distinctive numismatic release. Issued in 2008 and produced by the Royal Canadian Mint, the piece features 20g of .925 silver \/ .075 copper silver and an official denomination of CAD 50 cents. With a maximum mintage of 25,000, it combines a focused collecting theme with the appeal of a limited-release precious-metal product. Its subject makes it particularly interesting to enthusiasts who collect related series, commemorative silver, licensed characters and specialist releases rather than relying on bullion weight alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe principal reverse design features a nostalgic milk-delivery theme on the third triangular issue in the Royal Canadian Mint's irregular-shape series, enhanced with translucent enamel. One of its most attractive qualities is its unusual triangular shape, sterling silver composition and translucent reverse enamel, giving the coin an individuality that is difficult to achieve with standard bullion artwork. The recorded mint finish is proof with reverse enamel effect, complemented by carefully executed engraved detail. The obverse portrays Queen Elizabeth II, while the non-circular outline and interrupted serrations highlight the experimental character of this issue. The design should be viewed in its protected presentation whenever possible to avoid unnecessary contact with coloured, glass or proof-finished surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor collectors, the attraction of 2008 Canada Milk Delivery 50c Triangular Sterling Silver Coloured Proof – Royal Canadian Mint extends beyond the precious-metal content to the completeness, specialist craftsmanship and story represented by this release. The original issue was presented in original royal canadian mint collector presentation; inspect actual packaging, and collectors will generally want to see the original capsule, certificate and any accessories that formed part of the package. The maximum mintage of 25,000 refers to the published issue or individual designs, not to a separate verified number of complete resale packages. Photographs should show the exact item being supplied and its condition, including any signs of toning, scratches, marks on display cases or missing paperwork. Whether added to a specialist collection or selected as a distinctive gift, this issue offers an engaging combination of design, subject matter and official precious-metal coinage through EverydayBullion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Royal Canadian Mint","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57021074866562,"sku":"RCM-23156","price":75.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/5555\/1874\/files\/d9b01eca-6e02-4b1a-9a06-848b3da08037.png?v=1793976974","url":"https:\/\/www.everydaybullion.co.uk\/products\/2008-canada-milk-delivery-50c-triangular-sterling-silver-coloured-proof-royal-canadian-mint","provider":"Everyday Bullion","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
