2025 Lenticular Coin for the Royal Canadian Mint: Whimsical Holiday Tree
Numismatists, unite! These are illustrations featuring Churchill the Polar Bear and his woodland friends in their childhood (before they were featured on Canadian coins like the twoonie, nickel and quarter), sliding down a magical tree. These are lenticular coins, meaning that the full-colour images flip back and forth as the coin is tilted.
A mini-feature on CBC’s website here (and yes, I know I said “loonie” instead of “twoonie”…!), as well as a radio interview here.
