Did you know?
These days, it seems like a matter of course that Canada's major cities hold impressive fireworks displays to mark Canada Day, but this July 1st tradition is relatively new: it didn't see the light of day until 1981. However, Parliament Hill had been hosting one for decades.
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has participated in two Canada Day celebrations: she was present for the country's centennial in 1967, and in 2010, when Canada celebrated its 143rd birthday. Her grandson, Prince William, joined us in 2011.
Packaging
The coin is set off by a festive packaging display: sparkling fireworks adorn the background, and the title "LA FIERTÉ D'UN PEUPLE" tops it all off.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the "Proudly Canadian" silver coin is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases a stylized maple leaf, which is a symbol of Canada, surrounded by the words "Proudly Canadian" in both English and French. This design was created by Canadian artist Joel Kimmel, and it was specifically designed to celebrate Canada's 150th anniversary of confederation in 2017. The coin's obverse features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, which is also a common feature on many Canadian coins. Overall, this coin is a beautiful and unique collectible that celebrates Canadian pride and heritage.
