Description
As our national banner, Canada’s maple leaf-adorned flag speaks of our sense of belonging to a larger community, one that is a vibrant mosaic of different cultures, languages and beliefs. It represents our history and our identity in this world, as we work together to shape a future for ourselves and for future generations. On the 50th anniversary of the National Flag of Canada, the Royal Canadian Mint commemorates Canada’s most recognisable symbol with this uniquely shaped, fine silver coin.
