1995 Canada 1/4 oz Proof Gold $100 Louisbourg
Struck in 1995, this Canadian legal tender coin commemorates a significant milestone in North American colonial history. The release marks exactly 275 years since the French began building their massive fortress at Louisbourg, located in modern-day Nova Scotia. Backed by the Canadian government, the coin contains a quarter ounce of gold with a purity of 0.583. The reverse side of the coin displays a detailed depiction of the French fort at Louisbourg. This design is accompanied by the inscriptions "CANADA", "Louisbourg", the commemorative years "1720-1995", and the face value of "100 DOLLARS". On the obverse, the coin features the right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The year of issue, 1995, is also displayed on this side, completing a design that bridges Canada's colonial past with its modern sovereign identity.
