2023 Canadian Baby Coin Gift Set ft $1 Specially Struck Loonie Dollar

Perfect for a baby shower or newborn gift, the 2023 Baby Gift Card Set is a sweet keepsake that preserves the joy and excitement of today so it can be treasured and remembered for years to come. All five non-circulation coins in this set—including its adorable “little moose” $1 coin (a set exclusive)—are presented in gender-neutral packaging that makes it part gift, part greeting card. Inside, there’s space for you to personalize your gift by writing a heartfelt message to baby, sibling(s), parents and/or grand-parents, along with baby’s name and measurements at birth.

A unique way to mark the birth of a child in 2023!

As we focus our attention on commemorating the reign of Queen Elizabeth II (1952-2022), the Mint will not be issuing any 2023-dated Canadian circulation coins featuring both the traditional reverse designs and an obverse featuring Queen Elizabeth II. Instead, we are offering a collector’s edition of these annual issues that have been struck in limited numbers. These are non-circulation coins, meaning they are legal tender but not intended for general circulation. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.

The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.
