2010 Vancouver Olympics Silver Maple Leaf - Hockey

And here it is, the last coin from the Vancouver 2010 Olympics silver maple leaf collection. This one may be the last, but it is also my favourite! As a life-long hockey player and fan this coin really speaks to me. I think if you ask anyone what sport they think of when they think of Canada, hockey is probably the answer 99.99% of the time. It is also neat that the greatest hockey player of all time, Wayne Gretzky, was number 99 and this coin features a single hockey player with the number 9999 below it (probably not intentional symbolism, but interesting anyway). If I was to recommend a person to buy any of the 2010 coins, this would be it without a doubt.
