Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the "Gardens of Canada" silver coin is that it features a unique rectangular shape, unlike traditional round coins. This distinctive shape was chosen to reflect the design of the Canadian landscape, with the long, narrow shape representing the country's vast territories and the rectangular cutouts symbolizing the diverse gardens found throughout Canada. This design element not only adds aesthetic appeal but also serves as a symbol of Canadian culture and heritage.
