About
Destination: Moon. Celebrate Canada’s first mission around the Moon.
With the launch of Artemis II, Canada becomes the second country to have an astronaut around the Moon, playing a vital role in humanity’s return to deep space and the next chapter of lunar exploration! The scientific milestone is celebrated on this 1 oz. 99.99% pure silver coin, which captures the excitement of a nation and the wonder felt worldwide for humanity’s long-anticipated return to the Moon, over 50 years after the Apollo program.
Crafted to reflect the mission’s significance in a fun and engaging way, the coin’s selectively coloured reverse takes on new meaning under black light. The surprise colour reveal allows the viewer to imagine the thrill of experiencing the Earth seen from the Moon—an awe-inspiring view that, before this mission, no Canadian has had the chance to witness firsthand.
From Earth to the Moon—marking a new era of space exploration.

Designed by Canadian artist Pandora Young, the coin’s reverse celebrates Canada’s role in the international NASA-led Artemis II mission through its depiction of a Canadian Space Agency astronaut in space, backed by an enlarged view of the Moon. Selective colour brings the astronaut’s blue-trimmed, orange-coloured Orion Crew Survival System spacesuit to life, with the Canadian flag visible on the shoulder. When viewed under black light, the engraved Moon in the background glows, while the iconic view of Earth from the Moon is reflected in the astronaut’s visor. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
