Guglielmo Marconi - Two-Coin Silver Proof Set
Canada and Britain pay tribute to the "Father of Wireless" with a two-coin set that celebrates Guglielmo Marconi's world-defining achievement. The United Kingdom two-pound coin features wireless waves in both the centre and outer border while a spark of electricity linking the zeros of the date generates a radiating series of three dots --- the Morse code letter "S." The Canada five-dollar coin recaptures the transmission of this signal from England to Canada where it envelops a cameo of Guglielmo Marconi. The obverse of both coins features an Effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
