Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1990-1999 Canadian Platinum $50 Elizabeth II coin is that it was the first platinum coin to be produced by the Royal Canadian Mint. This coin was part of a series of platinum coins that were introduced in 1990 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Mint. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse and a maple leaf on the reverse, which is a common symbol of Canada. The coin's platinum content and limited mintage make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
