10th Anniversary of the Farewell to the Penny - 5 oz. Pure Silver Reverse Gold-Plated Coin (2022)

A nostalgic look back! It was 10 years ago, in 2012, that the last Canadian penny was struck at our Winnipeg facility.

Until that moment, the copper-plated cent was everywhere: it jingled in the pockets and purses of Canadians for generations filled countless coin jars and its maple leaf twig design was a part of our everyday lives. Now, a decade later, its iconic design has been given a new life and a modern twist on this 5 oz. fine silver tribute, which has been enhanced with reverse gold plating to add a precious gleam.
