Comments

This coin was released in 2015 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Canadian flag. It was available for purchase from the RCM's online store, at face value. It was very popular and sold out within a couple of weeks.

Because of the high demand for this coin, it is hard to find in general circulation.
