2011 Canadian 25-Cent Legendary Nature: Peregrine Falcon Non-coloured Quarter Coin (Brilliant Uncirculated)
The Mint's latest commemorative circulation coin pays tribute to a bird species which nearly disappeared, due primarily to the use of DDT in the 1950's and 1960's. Brought back from the brink through countless volunteer efforts in cities across Canada and protected wilderness habitats such as New Brunswick's Fundy National Park, the Peregrine falcon is equally at home in urban and natural environments. It even frequents Winnipeg, Manitoba, home to the Mint facility which produced its namesake coin, thanks to the creation of nesting sites at landmarks such as the Hotel Fort Garry and the Manitoba Legislative Building.
Design
The obverse design features Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in right profile at 77 years old, surrounded by the Latin inscription "ELIZABETH II D. G. REGINA". This effigy was designed by Susanna Blunt.
Designed by BBDO, the coin features a peregrine falcon facing right. The text underneath reads "CANADA", the face value, "25 CENTS", and the year of issue, "2011".
Packaging
2011 Canadian 25-Cent Legendary Nature: Peregrine Falcon non-coloured quarter coin comes from an original roll in brilliant uncirculated condition.
