Our most cherished memories are the moments we share with others, whether in person or in spirit—like the birthday greeting that says “you are special to me,” the joyous “welcome” to the newest family member, or even an ordinary moment, whether it be a visit to Canada or a holiday greeting, can be made extraordinary with a gift that leaves a lasting impression. From welcoming a newborn to a holiday greeting, celebrate life’s most meaningful moments and your future memories of 2023 with a gift card set from the Royal Canadian Mint. You can be sure that all the joy, pride and wonder you felt in those moments will endure with the gift of these 2023-dated non-circulation coins. After all, a gift of coins is a gift of remembrance—a way to capture a moment intime and ensure it will be cherished for years to come. Share the love. Share the moment.

 Includes a set-exclusive, special-moose themed dollar. Packaged in a card-like folder, each five-coin set includes a specially struck $1 non-circulation coin that is exclusively designed to mark the occasion, and it is only available as part of the set.
 Exceptionally rare! This is an easy way to acquire a 2023-dated version of the traditional reverse designs of Canadian coinage ($2, 25¢, 10¢, 5¢), in a year when these are only available as non-circulation coins. These collector exclusives are also available as part of the 2023 Collector’s Edition Coin Set and 2023 Collector’s Edition Special Wrap Roll Set.
 A Moose mascot for 2023! The $1 non-circulation coin in each 2023 Gift Set (Baby, Birthday, O Canada and Holiday) features a fun moose design that reflects the theme and represents the spirit of Canada. The moose is a popular symbol of this country’s wildlife and wild spaces, and its antlers make it one of Canada’s most recognizable species.
 Special obverse! The obverse of the five non-circulation coins features a marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of Queen Elizabeth II.
 Made for sharing! Perfect for in-person gift-giving, sharing, or even sending abroad. Need to mail it? A custom-designed envelope is enclosed for your convenience.

As we focus our attention on commemorating the reign of Queen Elizabeth II (1952-2022), the Mint will not be issuing any 2023-dated Canadian circulation coins featuring both the traditional reverse designs and an obverse featuring Queen Elizabeth II. Instead, we are offering a collector’s edition of these annual issues that have been struck in limited numbers. These are non-circulation coins, meaning they are legal tender but not intended for general circulation. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.
