As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Canadian Flag, the Royal Canadian Mint takes great pride in commemorating our cherished national symbol with the release of two special 25-cent circulation coins – one in vibrant color and another in classic, non-colored design – marking this significant milestone.

Few symbols resonate with Canadians as profoundly as our national flag, adorned in red and white, proudly showcasing the iconic red maple leaf. The Canadian flag embodies sentiments of pride, valor, freedom, and peace. It stands as one of the most universally recognized national symbols across the globe. Above all, to Canadians, it signifies home. The red maple leaf brings us together, forging a shared identity that bridges our diverse cultures, languages, and beliefs.

This remarkable coin showcases a design featuring fifty children, each representing one of the flag's illustrious 50 years, symbolizing the promise of Canada's future. Emblazoned at the bottom center are the words "50 years/ans." The artistic vision behind this design emanates from the talented Bonnie Ross of Nova Scotia.
