About the Gold Gyrfalcon Coin:

The Gyrfalcon is the largest member of the falcon species.  Also known as the White Falcon, these spectacular birds can be found throughout North America, Europe, and Asia. The White Falcon breeds along the Arctic Ocean’s coastal regions on all three continents. The Gyrfalcon has been sought after by humans as a hunting partner since ancient times. Therefore, it is an appropriate topic for the Royal Canadian Mint’s stunning gold coin, which honors not only falconry but also royalty and aristocracy.  

The Gyrfalcon’s significance goes beyond its impressive hunting prowess. Historically, it has symbolized nobility and power in various cultures. In medieval times, only nobles were allowed to use Gyrfalcons for falconry, elevating it to a status symbol. The Royal Canadian Mint’s Gold Gyrfalcon coin pays tribute to this majestic bird and the rich tradition of falconry, making it not just a wise investment but also a symbol of prestige in your gold IRA or investment portfolio.
