Canada. 2007-2009 Olympic 15-Coin $25 Silver Hologram Set. NGC PR69 Ultra Cameo. A stunning group of silver coins that were issued leading up to the 2010 winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada. The obverse of all 15 coins shows the right facing bust of Queen Elizabeth II. Each reverse has an identical quarter-crescent holographic panel at left with snowflakes and the official symbol of the Olympics. All the reverses are unique. The first five examples, dated 2007, illustrate Ice Hockey, Olympic Pride, Biathlon, Curling, and Alpine Skiing. The 2008 issues commemorate Snowboarding, Freestyle Skiing, Figure Skating, Bobsleigh, and the Olympic Grounds. The final year of issue, 2009, depicts Cross Country Skiing, Speed Skating, Ski Jumping, Skeleton, and Olympic Spirit. An incredibly well-produced set, and a perfect commemoration of the Vancouver games. [15] From the Waldman Collection.
