Canada's first official gold coins
are now being minted and circulat
ed over the Dominion. There was
mi attempt made in the ear It days
t>?" the gold discoveries to mint
gold coins, but the Imperial gov
ernment stopped it. That of course,
was loi.g before the Yukon en
tered the ramlly of confederation
:ind when it was a separate colony,
with a governor at the head of its
affairs. Governor Douglas got the
idea that the newly-discovered gold
would look well if converted into
sovereigns, and as his word was
pretty much the taw of the land,
the idea was carried out. A mint
of some sort was put up and equip
ped with machinery. The neces
sary machinery was obtained, the
mint was started and gold sovere
igns were turned out ? for a little
while. The minting was done with
out the authority of the imperial
government, and when London
heard that gold coins were being
produced in British Columbia, im
mediate action was taken. The
mint was closed and never reopen
ed. The coins turned out in the
short interval of the British Colum
bia mint's activity were never of
ficially accepted or authoriied as
currency. They are now very
rare and as curiosities are worth
a good deal more than real money
of like denomination. From that
day till a few weeks aga no gold
has been coined in Canada.
