2021 Canada $2 Renewed Silver Toonie: 25th Anniversary of the $2 Circulation Coin Fine Silver (No Tax)

In the same spirit as our Renewed Silver Dollar (2015-present) and Renewed Silver Half Dollar (2017-2020) series, the Renewed Silver Toonie series is a collectible retrospective featuring designs that have graced Canada’s two-dollar circulation coin since its inception in 1996. It’s an annual, fine silver celebration that spans more than two decades of coin art, and as a Royal Canadian Mint Masters Club exclusive, this journey through history is tailored to the most loyal collectors.

Following the success of our Renewed Silver Dollar series (2015-present) and the conclusion of the Royal Canadian Mint's Renewed Half-Silver Dollar series (2017-2020), they’re introducing a new annual series that shifts the focus to a different denomination: Canada’s $2 circulation coin, better known as the toonie.

In 2021, Canada’s bi-metallic $2 coin turns 25! To mark the occasion, the Royal Canadian Mint begins this retrospective series with a reproduction of the 2006 anniversary tribute to the toonie’s polar bear mascot since 1996. The design has been renewed and upgraded on this collectible, which combines 99.99% pure silver and selective gold plating to capture the look of our famous bi-metallic coin.

The coin’s reverse is a reproduction of the 2006 $2 commemorative circulation coin design by Canadian artist Tony Bianco. It is a variation of the Arctic-themed design that debuted 10 years prior, in 1996, and shows the polar bear gazing up at the aurora borealis. The addition of selective gold plating captures the distinctive look of the bi-metallic circulation coin, which features the words “CANADA” and “2 DOLLARS” on its reverse. The obverse is double dated (“1996 • 2021”) to mark the 25th anniversary of the $2 circulation coin and features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
