Art deco! Coin #2 takes to the seas for a look at progress.
Our journey through history continues! Coin #2 in the First 100 Years of Confederation is an art deco-styled view of Canada from 1914 and 1945 and features one of the first ships built for the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN).
This was an era in which a young Canada was navigating uncertain waters made murkier by two wars and a crippling economic depression. Waves of immigration had landed on our shores and swept west, transforming society and enriching our cultural fabric. But the changing tides of history also carried Canada's finest and our hopes for peace to places like Vimy, and later, Juno Beach - two key turning points that marked Canada's coming of age, which is represented on this coin.
A gorgeous piece that tells a powerful story through captivating art.
