Comment
This coin is the first of a series that takes a retrospective look at the history of the nickel, or 5-cent coin, minted at the Royal Canadian Mint.Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it has a unique "crossed bough" design, which features two branches, one with maple leaves and the other with oak leaves, crossing each other. This design is a nod to the cultural heritage of Canada, as the maple leaf is a symbol of Canada, while the oak leaf represents the British monarchy, reflecting the country's history as a British dominion.
