The obverse features the year "2019" and face value "3 DOLLARS", and the framedeffigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by SusannaBlunt.
Did you know…
- There are more than 670 wineries across Canada—from the big vineyards of our most prominent wineregions (Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec and Nova Scotia) to small fruit farms across Canada.
- Canada's first commercial winery was founded in 1866 on our southernmost point: Pelee Island, Ontario.
- Canada is the world's largest producer of high-qualityice wine. Naturally sweet and intensely flavoured,this dessert wine is made exclusively from Canadian-grown grapes (often of the Vidal variety) that have naturally frozen on the vine. The frozen grapes are only picked when the outdoor temperature is -8°C or less, and they are immediately pressed before the fruit can thaw.
Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box.
