This is a 2015 Canada 1/10 oz Gold $5 Special Service Force BU coin, also known as the Devil's Brigade coin.

The coin contains 1/10 troy ounce of .9999 pure gold. 

It has a face value of $5 CAD, backed by the Canadian government. 

The reverse features the Devil's Brigade insignia, flanked by the American star and Canadian maple leaf, while the obverse typically depicts Queen Elizabeth II. 

A unique source of military pride for Canada and the U.S.!

During World War II, Canada joined forces with the United States to create the First Special Service Force—the first and only time both nations would be seamlessly combined in training, equipment and uniform. Although it was only operational for two years,this elite combat unit demonstrated the power of united national forces against a common foe—and consequently became the forerunner to distinguished Canadian and U.S. units including Canada's Joint-Task-Force 2; and the United States' Navy Seals, Delta Force and Green Berets.

Your coin features a stylized star and maple leaf, layered with the FSSF (First Special Service Force) shoulder patch that united Canada and the U.S. in joint missions. The patch features the names of both nations. Below the central image is an arrowhead shape, interpreted to symbolize the warrior spirit of the FSSF. The reverse also features the name "FIRST SPECIAL SERVICE FORCE" and "PREMIÈRE FORCE DE SERVICE SPÉCIAL," the date "2015" and the face value of "5 DOLLARS."Content: 1/10 troy oz. of .9999 fine gold
