The Canadian 5 cents coins made in 2020 consist mainly of circulation pieces struck in copper-plated steel and display the classic beaver on a log design by G.E. Kruger-Gray, with the uncrowned bust of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse by Dora de Pédery-Hunt; their specifications are a weight of 3.95 grams, a diameter of 21.2 mm, plain edge, and medal axis alignment, with magnetic properties and the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II D – G – REGINA” on the obverse and “5 CENTS CANADA 2020” on the reverse. In addition to regular circulation and proof-like versions, collector coins from 2020 include commemorative pieces such as pure silver and bronze issues that echo the historic “Victory nickel” design with a torch, large “V,” maple leaves, and a Morse code tribute reading “We Win When We Work Willingly,” featuring either King George VI or special finishes and limited mintages, aimed at collectors and celebrating Canadian resilience and history.
