Comment

World-renowned innovation in minting combines 18-karat gold with holography for the 12th and final coin in this series that has captivated coin collectors since 2000.

Rabbits are soft, peace-loving creatures. They live in tidy little burrows that quickly fill with offspring.The Rabbit personality in the Chinese lunar calendar is remarkably similar; it loves beautiful things and is highly fertile in a symbolic sense.The Rabbit has a knack for details. Few things go unnoticed; including people’s mistakes. But the good-hearted Rabbit will only point them out if its own comfort is at stake. The compassionate Rabbit is quick and clever. It’s only surpassed by the Sheep for its sympathetic ear.

Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that blends traditional Chinese motifs with Canadian elements. The obverse of the coin features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, while the reverse depicts a rabbit surrounded by maple leaves and a stylized representation of the Chinese character for "rabbit." This fusion of cultures makes the coin a truly distinctive piece.
