DESCRIPTION
The 2023 National Indigenous Peoples Day commemorative $2 circulation coin celebrates First
Nations, Inuit, and Métis art and cultures. You’ll find 25 of those coins in each Colourized
Special Wrap Roll, and all of them share the same colour-enhanced design from the three artists, who weaved together expressions to form a powerful ode to First Nations, Inuit, and
Métis cultures and heritages.
While National Indigenous Peoples Day (June 21) celebrates the diverse cultures and outstanding achievements of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples in Canada, the commemorative $2 circulation coin is an open-ended invitation to learn about and honour first nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples and their histories and heritages.
