Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2000 Canadian Elizabeth II 25-cent coin is that it features a unique colored design, which was achieved through a process called "colored nickel plating." This process involves depositing a thin layer of colored nickel onto the coin's surface, creating a vibrant and eye-catching effect. The colored plating is applied over a base of nickel, which gives the coin its distinctive silver-colored rim. This process was used to create a limited number of coins, making it a rare and collectible item for coin enthusiasts.
