In addition to the standard Centennial '67, some special ones were produced. Late in 1967, Cochrane and Dunlop Ltd., represented by Mr. Ed French, purchased a quantity of Canadian Centennials. A number of these guns were disassembled and the receivers gold plated. When the guns were reassembled, the barrel rolls were filled with gold paint and the stocks were branded. A maple leaf over a banner saying "1867 Canadian Centennial 1967" was branded on the butt end of the stock. The serial numbers of these guns were not recorded and the exact number of guns gold plated and or branded is unknown. This rifle has a hang tag which seems to corroborate this information. The tag states the number produced was 1000 in Canada and 2000 in USA. See photos for more details on condition. This is a very rare example of the Canadian Commemorative.
