About This Item

The 2007 British Columbia Geocoin is ready! This coin features 3D art of the Kinsol Trestle located in the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island. Tom Spetter from Cyan Design has created the First Nation and traditional wildlife side of the coin while Chris has created the 3D side. This trestle is the largest railway trestle of its kind in the British Commonwealth! It is part of the Trans Canada Trail, but it has yet to be used as a link in the TC Trail because it is in a state of disrepair. At the end of the day, it's fate is in the hands of the CVRD. We want to raise awareness of the Kinsol Trestle and its ability to be a tourism draw to the Cowichan Valley. The financial spin off to the region of a restored original Kinsol Trestle in terms of pure tourism dollars brought in is invaluable. In addition, our goal is for this coin to be a lasting memory of the original Kinsol Trestle, a historical jewel in the Cowichan Valley.

Doing maintenance on my cache and thought it was time for this to move. I have two of these coins, they are a great example of the quality work that comes from Landsharkz. 😎
