Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Royal Canadian Mint centennial 1 Dollar coin is that it features a unique double-effigy design, with both a traditional portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a stylized, modern interpretation of her likeness on the other. This innovative design was created by Canadian artist and designer, Susanna Blunt, and was intended to symbolize the evolution of the Canadian monarchy and the country's history.
