Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2000 Canada 25 Cents - Elizabeth II (Creativity Mule) circulating commemorative coin made of Nickel weighing 5.05g is that it features a unique double-effigy design, with both a traditional portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a stylized depiction of her on the other, surrounded by a wreath of maple leaves. This distinctive design was created to celebrate the Queen's 45th anniversary on the throne and to symbolize her role as a symbol of continuity and tradition.
