The 150th Anniversary of Canadian Confederation The reverse design is both classic and modern. Centering on an allegorical personification of Canada, the elements represent our story as a nation including historical, geographical, social and political aspects. In the foreground, Canada rises up strong, majestic and bold; she bears a youthful appearance, given Canada's status as a relatively young nation. Canada is the picture of grace and a vision of strength in her protective armour, and yet she carries no weapon—a symbolic representation of our efforts to bring peace throughout the world. Facing out as though looking to the future, Canada's gaze is calm and steady while her arms are open wide, ready to embrace what challenges and triumphs lie ahead. In one hand is a symbolic representation of the British North America Act, which represents the birth of the Dominion of Canada 150 years ago. In the other hand is a single feather that pays tribute to those who helped forge our nation's path: the First Nations peoples and the Fathers of Confederation. A fur cape is a further reminder of First Nations traditions, as well as the importance of the fur trade in Canada's early history. In the background, Mount Logan (Canada's tallest peak) represents the diversity of the land, and alludes to the ability of Canadians to "rise" to the challenges of the past, present and future.    This new coin design represents Canada as the country celebrates its milestone 150th anniversary of Confederation. The Latin banner across the bottom reads "Historia tua epos est," which translates to "Your history is an epic," a line which also appears in the French version of "O Canada." In the first 150 years, Canada has seen prosperity and hard times, peace and turmoil, tragedy and triumph, but most of all, at its 150th anniversary of Confederation, it is a mature but still youthful nation with a strong patriotic identity and with a reputation as a strong, innovative, steadfast and hopeful nation. The obverse design for all three coins is new for Canada's 150th Anniversary of Confederation, but also draws on the tradition of the original Confederation medal and the first coins of Canada. While the obverse of the original 1867 medal featured a single effigy of Queen Victoria, the reigning monarch at the time of Confederation, the obverse sides of these new coins feature the dual effigies of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt and Queen Victoria by Leonard Charles Wyon. Queen Victoria is featured as the monarch at the time of Confederation in 1867, while Queen Elizabeth II appears as our monarch at the time of "Canada 150." The obverse also includes the cypher used by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and the cypher that was used by Queen Victoria. Each cypher is ensigned with a crown depicted in a style specifically used by each monarch. • Mintage: 1,000 • Weight: 10 oz fine silver (each) • Diameter: 76.25 mm (each) • GST/HST exempt
