Your coin features a mix of different symbols that inspire pride for the land Canadians call home! Order today!
From culture to geography, Canada is a country defined by diversity. And nowhere is that diversity more evident than in the different icons that represent Canada. Our challenge with this 5 oz. coin was to represent Canada in a symbolic design that highlights what makes us unique.But with so many icons to choose from, we couldn’t pick just one. Instead, we’ve combined several famous Canadian symbols to form a single image that radiates pride. On the reverse, each stylized icontells a story—from the canoe to the evergreens, theNorth Star and the inunnguaq, and even the rocks that represent each province and territory. Coming together as one, they give shape to a nation’s spirit, a shape that resembles the most famous Canadian icon of all: the maple leaf.

Design:
Designed by Canadian artist Adam Young, your coin features a composition of pride-evoking icons that represent Canada in many different ways. From topto bottom, each of the 13 layers of stone symbolizes a Canadian province or territory. Water wraps around this rock formation to connect each coast, where the pine trees represent a natural resource that hasprovided much revenue and inspired many works of Canadian art. The canoe pays homage to the First Peoples of Canada, while reflecting on the way many Canadians originally arrived to these shores. At the top of it all, the inunnguaq symbolizes Canada’s spirit, strength and determination; its legs forma window that frames the North Star, which radiateslike a lighthouse beacon that provides safety, guidance and a luminous welcome to these shores. The composition intentionally mimics the shape of a maple leaf, including the paddle that forms the leaf’s petiole. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
