REMEMBERING THE PENNY, 10 YEARS LATER! Enjoy this nostalgic look back at Canada’s one-cent circulation coin, as we mark the 10. Anniversary of the last penny struck at our Winnipeg facility. The penny’s iconic maple leaf twig design is back, but there’s a twist! The twig and twin maple leaves have been given a more contemporary appearance, with geometric angles that add more depth than ever, and engraved facets that catch and reflect the light. This coin is crafted from 5 oz. Of 99.99% pure silver, which is only visible on the effigy and select design elements on the reverse. The rest of the coin is plated with beautiful yellow gold that outshines even the brightest copper penny.

It weighs considerably more, too: 157.6 grams compared to the penny’s 2.35 grams. The Royal Canadian Mint certifies all of its collector coins. Can ada’s penny as you’ve never seen it before!
