2024 1 oz This is Canada: Wondrous Waters – Great Lakes Fine Silver Coin

A new annual series from the Royal Canadian Mint, This Is Canada invites you to (re)discover the sights and species that make each region of Canada so unique and fascinating! The theme for 2024 is Wondrous Waters, and this coin is the last instalment for 2024. The Great Lakes form the largest body of freshwater on Earth and they were the main arteries of early Canada — the freshwater seas upon which people and goods have travelled since time immemorial. Though we share this unofficial “fourth” coast with the United States, the pristine wilderness of Canada’s Great Lakes region — so lovingly captured on this fourth coin — has done much to shape the world’s perception of Canada as a place teeming with life, including a number of beloved wildlife species that are regarded as quintessentially, and iconically, Canadian.
