The Royal Canadian Mint has issued a Lucky Loonie since 2004, coinciding with each Olympic and Paralympic Games to enable Canadians to remember, support and celebrate past and future Canadian Olympic Team accomplishments.
The Mint is proud to issue this specially designed Lucky Loonie to celebrate a Canadian Olympic Team story, and to wish all of our Canadian athletes the very best of luck as they compete in London this summer
Designed by Canadian artist Emily S. Damstra, your coin depicts a common loon spreading its wings in a territorial display, one of the species’ most elegant and recognizable poses. Your coin also features a red painted Canadian Olympic Team logo to celebrate and support Canada’s athletes as they prepare for the Games in London
