A precious metal upgrade
The combination of 99.99% pure silver and selective 99.99% pure gold plating re-creates the distinctive colour contrast that makes Canada's bi-metallic $2 coin so unique. This is a renewed and enhanced version of the 2000 coin, and nearly twice the size too!
Historic obverse
Just like the original coin issued in 2000, this larger-sized collectible features the diademed effigy by Dora de Pédery-Hunt; the historic effigy was in use from 1990 until 2002, before it was replaced in 2003 by the current “uncrowned” effigy by Susanna Blunt.
