The Design:

This endearing coin captures the essence of that happy time with a heart-warming design of baby feet struck incuse into the coin, like footprints in the sand. But unlike sand that shifts and fades with time, these imprints are pure silver and will last forever.

Queen Elizabeth II Memorial Obverse:

As new King Charles III dies were not yet ready for this coin, the obverse features a posthumous effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II with the addition of the double dates of her reign, 1952-2022. The four dots or pearls between the dates are intended to represent the four different effigies of the Queen that have appeared on Canadian coinage.
