Moving Forward, Looking Back

On January 2, 1908 - the day that the Ottawa branch of the Royal Mint was itself freshly minted - Countess Alice Grey, wife of Canada's ninth Governor-General, Albert Henry George Grey, stepped forward and struck Canada's first domestically produced coin: a 1-cent piece. By 2012, more than 35 billion more would be produced.

Today's rising costs of labour, base metals, manufacturing, and distribution mean that each penny costs more than 1.6 cents to produce. The Royal Canadian Mint's patented and cost-effective multi-ply plated steel technology allows it to keep production costs for all other Canadian circulation coins wellunder their face value; not so, however, for the one-cent piece.

In its Economic Action Plan 2012, the Government of Canada announced its decision to modernize Canada's currency set by eliminating the penny from Canada's coinage system. While the penny will remain legal tender, the Royal Canadian Mint will no longer distribute pennies as ofFall 2012. Canadians can still spend pennies, redeem them at financial institutions, donate them to charities, or recycle them.

Though the humble penny will one day disappear from our midst, its unique role in the history of Canadian coinage remains timeless. And the penny itself, though perhaps no longer present in our pockets, will alwayshold a special place in our hearts.

En visitant le site de l'IMAGINAIRE je suis tombée sur cette pièce désormais en inventaire et je l'ai trouvée très belle et de plus les avis des autres clients étaient très bon. Je suis très satisfaite de ma pièce et du service au magasin.

Adieu au sou
Belle pièce numismatique pour commémorer la pièce de un sou. Le contraste entre les couleurs fait bien ressortir les feuilles d'érable qui ornent la pièce.
