Member Price: S$50.00
Availability Date: End May 2023
A uniquely Canadian tribute. In addition to the partial view of Queen Elizabeth II’s Canadian insignia as Sovereign of the Order of Canada and the Order of Military Merit, the colour portrait is surrounded by maple leaves that represent this nation and our special relationship with The Queen, who was the first sovereign to be separately proclaimed the Queen of Canada.
Colour over engraving. Queen Elizabeth II’s portrait is re-created using a combination of engraving and paint. This has been the image of The Crown in Canada since 2010.
Tribute obverse. Marked by a small Tudorrose, the tribute obverse combines the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins since Queen Elizabeth II’ coronation in 1953. This obverse is only featured on the numismatic coins in the Queen Elizabeth II’s Reign collection.
Special packaging. Each coin comes in an illustrated gift card folder that includes a timeline of Queen Elizabeth II’s official visits to Canada.
She was Canada’s Queen, and every visit was a homecoming. During her long reign, Queen Elizabeth II made 22 official visits to Canada, more times than to any other Commonwealth nation. These travels brought The Queen to every province and territory, where, reunited with her Canadian “family,”Queen Elizabeth II joined in some of our greatest celebrations and milestones.
This 1/4 oz 999 pure silver coin from the Royal Canadian Mint commemorates the legacy of Queen Elizabeth II. The most affordable piece in the Mint’s commemorative Queen Elizabeth II’s Reign collection, this coin’s selectively coloured reverse features the official portrait that was taken during The Queen’s last Canadian homecoming in 2010.
