Comment
This coin is only found in the 2009 proof set.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it commemorates the 100th anniversary of the first flight in Canada, which took place on February 23, 1909, by pilot J.A.D. McCurdy. The coin's design features a selectively gold-plated image of Queen Elizabeth II, along with an image of a vintage aircraft and the coin's denomination. The use of selective gold plating adds an extra layer of depth and visual interest to the coin's design.
