Context

Silver tribute to Canada’s last penny. The reverse features a large-scale reproduction of G.E. Kruger Gray's iconic maple leaf twig design, as seen on Canadian one-cent circulation coins issued from 1937 to 2012 (with the exception of 1967). To commemorate the 10th anniversary of Canada's last penny, a reproduction of the 2012 one-cent coin design forms the number '0' in the year '2022'. DID YOU KNOW? Roughly 35 billion Canadian one-cent coins were minted between 1908—our first year of operations as the Ottawa branch of the Royal Mint—and 2012, when the last penny was struck at our high-tech facility in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Packaging Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box.
