Comments

Canada has two emblematic animals: the Canadian horse and the beaver. Although the beaver only officially became the national emblem in 1975, it has been used to symbolize the country since its inception. In fact, since the early 1620s, the beaver has appeared on the first coats of arms of the territory associated with what is now Canada.

This coin makes a wonderful gift for a friend or family member who loves nature and Canada.
