| Additional information |
Issued as part of the 125th anniversary of Canadian Confederation series, this piece was one of twelve provincial and territorial designs released throughout 1992. New Brunswick's inclusion reflected its status as one of the four original provinces at Confederation in 1867, though the province had significant anti-Confederation factions at the time — particularly among Irish Catholic communities wary of Protestant Ontario's influence in the new dominion.
Mintage ran into the tens of millions across the commemorative series, and most examples survived in near-mint condition, pulled as souvenirs rather than spent.
