Description
Each Peace Dollar is a powerful representation of Canada’s ongoing dedication to universal human rights and world peace. Before becoming Prime Minister of Canada, Lester B. Pearson was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize in 1957 for organizing the first UN peacekeeping force. In the decades since, UN peacekeepers have helped de-escalate conflicts and save lives throughout the world. That legacy of peace and international cooperation is reflected on the reverse of this 1 oz. 99.99% pure silver coin from the Royal Canadian Mint, where the yellow gold-plated Ultra-High Relief portrait radiates hope for a peaceful and prosperous future.
New for 2024: Yellow gold plating on UHR! Each coin features yellow gold plating on its obverse and reverse, where the uplifting colour has been combined with Ultra-High Relief (UHR) and a special field pattern to create a truly dynamic, high-contrast design.
