| Additional information |
The original Peace Dollar was an American coin, which makes the Royal Canadian Mint's decision to produce this oversized tribute a minor curiosity in itself — Canada issuing a premium collectible built entirely around U.S. monetary history. The 1921–1935 Peace series was commissioned specifically to mark the end of World War I, with Anthony de Francisci's design selected under considerable time pressure. The RCM's 2022 rendition restrikes that iconography in .9999 fine silver at a scale impossible for the original production dies.
De Francisci's wife Teresa served as the model for the original obverse. That detail is documented.
