2020 - Special Edition Silver Dollar Proof Set – 75th Anniversary of V-E Day: Royal Canadian Navy

On the 75th anniversary of V-E Day, we salute those who served in the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) and Women's Royal Canadian Naval Service (WRCNS or "Wrens") during the Second World War. The 2020 Special Edition Silver Dollar is exclusive to this proof set. Its Naval Ensign is a colourful symbol of nearly six years of bravery and sacrifice at sea, where Canada's naval forces contributed significantly to the Allied victory in 1945—from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and waters in between.
