| Additional information |
The Peace Dollar design — originally struck in the United States from 1921 to 1935 — was never a Canadian coin. The Royal Canadian Mint's decision to issue it under Elizabeth II's effigy is a deliberate collector conceit, pairing an American numismatic icon with a Commonwealth monarch who died in September 2022, making this one of the final issues to carry her portrait before the transition to Charles III.
The pink gold plating on .9999 fine silver is a relatively recent RCM technique, introduced to differentiate premium collector issues from standard gold-plated strikes. It has no historical precedent in the original Peace Dollar series.
