"It begins centuries ago before the idea of the Mint was even conceived when trading was done with furs, and coins were in short supply. It takes us to the turn of the 20th century when nationalism created the demand for a Canadian mint and brings us to the present day, and the stories behind our modern circulating coins and special issues." -Reviewed by Bernie 4444 on Goodreads.
