These coins depict iconic bird and mammal mascots that are suited to their respective homes, and they reflect on who Canadians are as a people —whether it’s Quebec Snowy Owl or New Brunswick’s Chickadee. In striking red, white and black colorway and coined as a ‘patriotic first’ the Canadian Landscape Coin isn’t to be missed.
