1994 Canada: 25 Cents Caribou
BU (Brilliant Out of Circulation) Quality — Grade: MS-62
Description of the room
The 1994 25-cent coin continues the tradition of the classic caribou motif on a pure nickel disc. While mintages were regular that year, finding examples with a brilliant white luster remains a priority for collectors. The MS-62 grade guarantees that the coin has never circulated and retains its original mint luster, with the usual contact marks for a coin of this grade.
The Obverse (Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II)
The obverse features the third portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Dora de Pédery-Hunt. The image is sharp and the luster is well distributed across the surface.
The Reverse
Emanuel Hahn's iconic Caribou motif adorns the reverse. The engraving is precise, and the date "1994" is clearly defined. There are no signs of wear on the raised areas, such as the antlers or the animal's eye.
