2022 Canadian $2 Polar Bear/Solemn Tribute to Queen Elizabeth II Black Ring Toonie Coin (Brilliant Uncirculated)
This $2 circulation coin is a solemn tribute to Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022) that marks the end of a historic reign. Like her effigy itself, she was a constant presence in the lives of Canadians, who will forever remember her unwavering dedication to public service and deep affection for Canada.
The 2-dollar coin, or 'Toonie', as Canadians have named it, features the image of an adult polar bear in early summer on an ice floe. It was designed by wildlife and landscape artist Brent Townsend. The 2-dollar coin was first introduced on February 19, 1996, to replace the 2-dollar bill. The 'Toonie' has a life span approximately 20 times longer than paper currency and is manufactured using a distinctive bi-metallic coin locking mechanism patented by the Royal Canadian Mint.
Features
- We remember. The $2 Honouring Queen Elizabeth II coin pays solemn tribute to Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022), her extraordinary life and her decades-long reign.
- A solemn first. This is the Mint’s first circulation coin featuring a black-nickel coloured design feature.
- A first for a circulation coin by the Mint. This is the Mint’s first circulation coin featuring a black-nickel coloured design feature. On both sides of the coin, the black outer ring serves as a symbol of mourning.
Design
Like a mourning band, the black outer ring surrounds the polar bear design at the centre of the coin’s reverse. The same effect carries over to the obverse, which features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II.
