2016 Canada 1/10 oz Gold $5 Special Service Force BU
This brilliant uncirculated gold coin from 2016 highlights a unique chapter in military history. Struck by Canada with a face value of five dollars, the coin contains one tenth of an ounce of highly refined 0.9999 fine gold. It serves as a sovereign tribute to the First Special Service Force, a legendary elite unit of American and Canadian volunteers also known as the Devil's Brigade. The reverse design features the distinctive insignia of this joint force, flanked by an American star and a Canadian maple leaf to represent the partnership between the two nations. Surrounding the central motif are inscriptions marking the unit's name in both English and French, along with the weight and purity of the gold. On the obverse, the right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II is displayed alongside the 2016 issue date and the denomination.
