Canada's loonie has carried a new effigy since Charles III's accession in September 2022, but the transition across circulation coinage took time to fully propagate through the Royal Canadian Mint's production schedule. This 2025 date represents one of the earliest fully normalized strikes under the new reign — routine production rather than a commemorative gesture, which is precisely what makes it the more historically durable artifact.
