| Additional information |
The "Fleet 80" designation refers to the 80th anniversary of the Canadian Naval Fleet, marked in 1995 alongside broader commemorations of the 50th anniversary of the end of World War II. Canada's naval contribution to that war was staggering — the Royal Canadian Navy grew from a peacetime force of roughly 3,500 personnel to over 100,000 by 1945, making it the third-largest Allied navy by war's end. The "Cannuck" spelling in collector parlance is informal shorthand that stuck through dealer catalogues of the period.
