Not issued for circulation in 2023 as the mint paid deference to the passing of Queen Elizabeth II in late 2022, the Canadian Coat of Arms 50c was thus at risk of creating prominent gaps in collections across the coin world!
Recognising the potential drama, the Royal Canadian Mint issued 25,000 Special Wrap Rolls containing 2023 50c coins, bearing the special QEII commemorative obverse. And they promptly sold out, as any collector worth their salt would have anticipated!
At Melbourne Coin Co. there is five of this 2023 QEII Special Wrap Roll available. Given the scarcity, and added importance with the inbound KCIII effigy rolls - CLICK HERE! - the five QEII rolls aren't going to last long. Grab one, if you're quick enough.
