The 2020 Canadian 2-dollar coin, uncolored version, commemorates the 75th anniversary of the end of the Second World War and honors Canadian victory. Its reverse design pays tribute to the Victory 5-cent coin originally designed by Thomas Shingles, featuring a “V” for Victory overlaid with a flaming torch and flanked by maple leaves. The coin also bears the double dates “1945” and “2020” to mark the anniversary. Around the outer ring, two maple leaves appear within a line pattern, while the words “VICTORY” and “VICTOIRE” are framed by inscriptions in International Morse Code that translate to “WE WIN WHEN WE WORK WILLINGLY” and “LA BONNE VOLONT\u00c9 EST GAGE DE VICTOIRE.” The bottom of the outer ring features the inscriptions “REMEMBER” and “SOUVENIR” alongside security marks of a maple leaf within another maple leaf. The obverse displays “CANADA,” the denomination “2 DOLLARS,” and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. This coin has a brilliant uncirculated finish, weighs 6.99 grams, and measures 28 mm in diameter.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
