Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1967 Canadian Confederation 50-cent coin is that it was the first commemorative coin issued by the Royal Canadian Mint to feature a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This coin was released to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Canadian Confederation, and it marked a significant shift in the design of Canadian coins, with the introduction of a new effigy of the Queen that would be used on Canadian coins for decades to come.
