| Additional information |
Issued as part of the Royal Canadian Mint's NHL team loonie series, this piece was produced the same year the Oilers were still rebuilding in the post-Gretzky, post-dynasty shadow — a franchise that hadn't won the Cup since 1990. The colored circulation strike was an unusual departure for the Mint, embedding team-specific enamel into standard vending-machine coinage.
KM#722 distinguishes the "home" colorway from the companion away variant issued simultaneously.
