Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2008 Canadian Olympic $1 coin is that it features a unique pad-printed design, which gives the coin a distinctive look and feel. The pad-printing process involves applying a layer of ink to the coin's surface using a silicone pad, creating a textured and detailed design that stands out from traditional coin designs. This process allows for intricate details and colorful designs that are not possible with traditional coin minting techniques.
