Product Description

Tens of thousand of fortune seeks flooded into the the Klondike region of Canada's north seeking gold. A few struck it rich, and many other failed. The allure of beautiful, and valuable gold, drove population and development to this isolated region.

The Klondike Gold Rush (1896-1899) is one of the more famous examples in North American. It was an particularly important chapter in Canada’s history. 2021 marks the 125th anniversary of the discovery that inspired gold fever in the Yukon territory. Skookum Jim Mason, his nephew Dawson Charlie, Kate Carmack, and her husband George Carmack made the famous find. Word spread and the rush was on the following summer.

The first gold nuggets were found at Rabbit (Bonanza) Creek. The ensuing boom spurred Yukon’s entry into Confederation, and Canada’s emergence as one of the world’s leading gold producers. This stunning Panning for Gold coin memorializes that first find.
