2023 Canada $2 Tribute: W Mint Mark - Polar Bear Toonie 1 oz Fine Silver Coin


Coin #1 in the first pure silver numismatic series struck at the Winnipeg Mint.

New from the Winnipeg Mint! The Tribute: W Mint Mark series celebrates Canada’s circulation coins and tells their story, beginning with our “youngest” circulation coin: the $2 piece, or Toonie.

Re-created in 99.99% pure silver with a tailored specimen finish and the “W” mint mark of the Winnipeg Mint, this all-silver tribute to Canada’s bi-metallic circulation coin features the beloved polar bear design that has appeared on hundreds of millions of $2 pieces since the coin denomination was introduced on February 19, 1996.

The first in a six-part series of 1 oz. 99.99% pure silver coins.

Design

A numismatic tribute to Canada’s $2 circulation piece, this all-silver coin features Brent Townsend’s classic “polar bear” design on its reverse. The centre portion shows an adult polar bear in early summer on an ice floe, while the circular frame bears the “W” (Winnipeg) mint mark. The obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.
