2022 1-CENT FINE SILVER COIN
10TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FAREWELL TO THE PENNY
W MINT MARK

Gone but not forgotten. It was 10 years ago, in 2012, that the last Canadian penny was struck at the Royal Canadian Mint’s facility in Winnipeg, Manitoba. To mark the anniversary, the cent’s maple leaf twig design has been brought out of retirement for a limited appearance on this 1 oz. “struck in Winnipeg” specimen silver penny.

 Canada’s Penny like never seen before! A 99.99% pure silver specimen finish tribute proudly struck in Winnipeg, where all Canadian pennies were minted from 1976 to 2012.
 A “W” mint mark. This 99.99% pure silver coin proudly bears a “W” (Winnipeg) mint mark that indicates where it was made—it’s the only new addition to a classic design.
 Double the size. With its 38 mm diameter, this coin is practically double the size of a 2012-dated penny (19.05 mm). The enlarged view brings renewed appreciation for a design that was once an everyday part of our lives.
 Limited mintage. Only 15,000 available worldwide.
