This fine silver collectable coin celebrates the centennial anniversary of Saskatchewan joining the Confederation. Featuring a ubiquitous prairie image, it depicts a meadowlark standing on a fencepost festooned with barbed wire, with the prairie in the background. Sprigs of wheat, railroad tracks, the grain elevator and summer thunderclouds complete the picture. In 1905, sowing wealth from the stubborn prairies was not for the faint of heart. Still, immigrants flooded in and those that came were strong and fiercely independent people. A mosaic of cultures began to cover the prairies and as communities grew, so did the need for provincial self-government. After more than 30 years of confident growth, two provinces were created within the North-West Territory - Alberta and Saskatchewan.
