The 2020 Canadian 2-dollar coin, commonly known as the “Toonie,” features an iconic design by wildlife artist Brent Townsend depicting an adult polar bear standing on an ice floe during the early Arctic summer. This bi-metallic coin, with a nickel outer ring and aluminum bronze inner core, has a diameter of 28 mm and weighs 6.92 grams. The polar bear image symbolizes Canada’s northern wilderness and resilience, and the coin utilizes a patented locking mechanism to secure its two parts, making it durable with an estimated lifespan about 20 times longer than paper currency. The obverse of the 2020 coin shows the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as updated by artist Susanna Blunt. This coin is produced in brilliant uncirculated condition for collectors and regular circulation, continuing to embody the heritage and strength of Canadian wildlife.
