From provincial coats of arms to sporting mascots, the mighty moose has long been one of Canada's most popular symbols. Now, the Royal Canadian Mint celebrates this iconic creature by immortalising it in this stunning coin. Found in forests across Canada–from the Alaskan border to Newfoundland and Labrador–this "gentle giant" is known for its easy-going nature. This, along with its determination, makes the moose the perfect representative for the spirit of Canada's wilderness and the people who inhabit the land!
