Commemorate the 150ᵗʰ anniversary of the RCMP with this colourful 1 oz. tribute.
Ask anyone to list iconic symbols of Canada, and chances are, they'll mention a colourfully uniformed “Mountie”—like the one depicted on this commemorative coin.
This year (2023) marks the 150ᵗʰ anniversary of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), an integral part of Canada's story since 1873. Since its storied beginnings as the North-West Mounted Police (NWMP), Canada's national police service has grown, modernized and endeavoured to become a more inclusive and diverse organization, and this is reflected on your coin's reverse. Its colourful portrait of a mounted officer—a globally recognized symbol of Canada, of law and order—is a recognition of the force's rich history, as well as the contributions made by members of the RCMP.
Recognizing the RCMP's 150-year history.
