As we focus our attention on commemorating the reign of Queen Elizabeth II (1952-2022), the Mint will not be issuing any 2023-dated Canadian circulation coins featuring both the traditional reverse designs and an obverse featuring Queen Elizabeth II. Instead, we are offering a collector’s edition of these annual issues that have been struck in limited numbers. These are non-circulation coins, meaning they are legal tender but not intended for general circulation. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.
Special Features
- Party time! Celebrate a friend or family member’s birthday and make it memorable with this fun, five-coin gift card set!
- Exceptionally rare! This is an easy way to acquire a 2023-dated version of the traditional reverse designs of Canadian coinage ($2, 25¢, 10¢, 5¢), in a year when these are only available as non-circulation coins.
- Mark the date! Each Gift Card Set features five (5) 2023-dated Canadian non-circulation coins: 5 cents, 10 cents, 25 cents and 2 dollars, including a special-themed one-dollar coin.

The $1 non-circulation coin in each 2023 Gift Set (Baby, Birthday, Holiday and O Canada) features a fun moose design that reflects the theme and represents the spirit of Canada. The moose is a popular symbol of this country’s wildlife and wild spaces, and its antlers make it one of Canada’s most recognizable species!

The obverse of the five non-circulation coins features a marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies of Queen Elizabeth II that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her II reign.
