The year 2021 marks the 100th anniversary of the original Canadian Coat of Arms. The Coat of Arms was first seen on a Canadian 50-cent coin back in 1937. Despite the 50-cent coin no longer being in circulation, collectors still admire the heraldic art found on the 50-cent piece each year.
In 1921, the Canadian Coat of Arms or Arms of Canada was proclaimed by His Majesty King George V. The Coat of Arms is a symbol that illustrates not only Canada itself but also, its political connection to Great Britain and France throughout it's design. The inclusion of the fleur-de-lis, three royal lions and rose, the royal Scottish lion and thistle, and the royal Irish harp of Tara and shamrock represent France, England, Scotland and Ireland respectively. Later in 1994, the Coat of Arms included the motto of the Order of Canada, Desiderantes Meliorem Patriam (Latin for “they desire a better country”). Today, the Coat of Arms is one of the most iconic symbols in Canada. This heraldic form of art is a powerful symbol of Canada's sovereignty and it is magnified in this 50-cent Special Wrap Circulation Roll.
The 50-cent coins found in the 2021 Canada Special Wrapped 50-cent Roll features the historic Canadian Coat of Arms on the reverse and the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt on the obverse.
