2024 - $20 - Pure Silver Coin – This Is Canada: Wondrous Waters - Pacific Coast

New annual series begins! Start your cross-Canada journey on the Pacific coast.

A new annual series, This Is Canada invites you to (re)discover the sights and species that inspire awe and pride for this country! Wondrous Waters is the theme for 2024, as we embark on a four-part exploration of the waters that surround us, beginning with the Pacific Ocean, which is highlighted on the series' first 99.99% pure silver coin.

British Columbia is considered the most biologically diverse of the 10 Canadian provinces, and much of that diversity is focused along a coastline punctuated by islands and fjords. It's easy to lose yourself in this spectacular setting where mountains and forests meet the sea, which is home to the long-revered cultural icon of the Pacific coast: the orca.

Coin #1: This is our Pacific coast. This is Canada.
