The 2022 Canadian 1 dollar coin celebrating Oscar Peterson in its uncolored version is a brilliant uncirculated circulation coin that honors the life, work, and legacy of the legendary Canadian jazz pianist. The coin’s reverse design, by Valentine De Landro, depicts Oscar Peterson seated at his piano playing his famous civil rights anthem “Hymn to Freedom,” with musical notes and chord symbols from the piece radiating from the piano, capturing the joy and love of music evident in all his performances. Made of three-ply brass plated steel, the coin weighs 6.27 grams and measures 26.5 mm in diameter. This non-colored version of the coin forgoes the purple accent present in the colored version, focusing instead on the intricate engraving to pay tribute to Peterson’s extraordinary contributions to Canadian music and culture.
