Description
Throughout its first century of service (1924-2024), Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) personnel have taken to the skies to assist, defend and represent Canadians, at home and abroad. As Canada’s Air Force marks its centennial, the $2 commemorative circulation
coin features a design that spans 100 years of RCAF missions, machinery and
milestones. Each Non-colourized Special Wrap Roll contains 25 engraved-only $2
coins featuring historic RCAF aircraft, past and present, that have been used to
perform different roles throughout the RCAF’s first century of service—from air
defence to search-and-rescue efforts.
The Design:
A century of service captured on a coin. On each $2 commemorative circulation
coin’s reverse, the RCAF’s first century (1924-2024) is seen through the lens of
services its personnel and equipment have brought—and continue to bring—to
Canada and the world.
