Comment

Canada initially minted 2023 coins with a transitional effigy of Queen Elizabeth II while a new effigy of Charles III is prepared (or else if a new law is voted).


This coin is only found in toe 2023 Fine Silver Proof Set - Kathleen "Kit" Coleman: Pioneer Journalist.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Bluenose silver coin is that it features a unique scalloped shape, which is inspired by the iconic Bluenose schooner that appears on the coin's reverse side. The scalloped shape gives the coin a distinctive look and feel, making it stand out from other coins. Additionally, the coin's silver content and low mintage make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item.
