| Additional information |
Alexander Mackenzie reached the Pacific overland in July 1793, beating Lewis and Clark to the continent's western coast by more than a decade. The Royal Canadian Mint's bullion and commemorative output in this period leaned heavily on explorer and wilderness themes as the 150th anniversary of Confederation approached — this piece falls squarely within that 2017 sesquicentennial programming.
