Description

Ad Mari Usque ad Mare: 1927 Diamond Jubilee of Canadian Confederation. 
On July 1, 1927, the Dominion of Canada marked 60 years of progress under the banner of Confederation. To commemorate the occasion, the Diamond Jubilee of the Confederation of Canada Medal was issued as a special presentation piece that expressed a nation’s pride and identity on its Diamond Jubilee. As we celebrate 150 years of Confederation, the Royal Canadian Mint travels back in time to revisit another historic year—a distant predecessor to Canada 150—through amagnificent artefact that is part of our medallic history.

Inspired by a general design by Canadian illustrator Charles William Jefferys, the reverse design is a tribute to the original (1927) designby Raymond Delamarre.
With arms spread wide to embody Canada’s motto, Ad Mari Usque Ad Mare (“From sea to sea”), a robed female allegory is engraved in high relief as a symbol of a young nation’s strength. She stands among sheaves of wheat that signify growth and prosperity across Canada, which is also represented by the clusters of maple leaves at her feet. Rising up behind her, a map of the Dominion of Canada is marked by transcontinental railroad links and the shield from Royal Arms of Canada (as it appearedin 1927). 

The obverse features the effigies of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt and Her Majesty Queen Victoria by Leonard Charles Wyon. The obverse also includes the Royal cypherused by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and a cypher used by Queen Victoria. Each Royal cypher is ensigned with a crown depicted in a stylespecifically used by each monarch.

This coin is the second issue of the Confederation of Canada medals.
