A century ago, the transcontinental railway enabled the settlement of western Canada. This low mintage, two ounce pure gold collectable coin features a dynamic portrait of a 1914-era steam train traversing the Grand Trunk Bridge in Saskatoon at the time of the railway's completion. It commemorates the 100th anniversary of the completion of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, a massive early twentieth-century engineering feat that linked eastern Canada to the Pacific.
