Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the $250 Elizabeth II (Pysanka) 2019 coin from Canada is that it features a unique design that incorporates a traditional Ukrainian Easter egg motif, known as pysanka, on the reverse side. This design was created by Ukrainian-Canadian artist, Oksana Mas, and it is the first time that a pysanka design has been featured on a Canadian coin. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, as is customary for Canadian coins. This coin was minted to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the first Ukrainian settlement in Canada and was limited to a mintage of only 2,500 coins, making it a highly sought-after collector's item.
