Team Canada 1972 was the clear-cut choice as Canada’s “Team of the Century” in a poll conducted by the Canadian Press. This substantial trophy was presented to Team Canada member Brian Glennie to commemorate the November 2000 unveiling of the historic monument dedicated to the team at the Hockey Hall of Fame. Attractive and substantial marble-base award presented by the Royal Canadian Mint stands 13 1/2” tall and features English and French plaques on either side. A silver-coloured maple leaf is mounted atop the heavy marble base, with the Mint’s commemorative 25th anniversary silver dollar set in the middle. Text on the English side reads “Award presented by the Royal Canadian Mint to: “Brian Glennie - #38”. Hailing from Glennie’s personal collection, an LOA signed by the family will accompany this incredible piece.
In regards to condition, the trophy remains in a beautiful state with only very minor surface wear being exhibited and the smallest touches of wear also being present on the bottom four corners. The top maple leaf still carries excellent visual appeal with one small dark mark on the reverse side. Of note, the maple leaf is also able to swivel on the base slightly.
