2022 Canada $2 Dollar Black Ring Toonie Coin Honouring Queen Elizabeth from Special Wrap Roll
Coin carefully extracted from original wrapped roll and placed into protective coin holder. Image are stock photos but is an accurate represented of the item you will receive
The 2-dollar coin, or 'Toonie', as Canadians have named it, features the image of an adult polar bear in early summer on an ice floe. It was designed by wildlife and landscape artist Brent Townsend. The 2-dollar coin was first introduced on February 19, 1996, to replace the 2-dollar bill. The 'Toonie' has a life span approximately 20 times longer than paper currency and is manufactured using a distinctive bi-metallic coin locking mechanism patented by the Royal Canadian Mint.
Design
The $2 Honouring Queen Elizabeth II coin is a solemn tribute
to Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022), and these examples originate from one of the Special Wrap Roll that honours Queen
Elizabeth II, every coin features a black outer ring that surrounds the polar
bear design on the reverse, and the effigy on the obverse, to form a symbol of
mourning.
