In 1973, the Royal Canadian Mint issued a commemorative quarter to mark the 100th anniversary of the RCMP. This special edition featured a unique reverse design by Paul Cedarberg, depicting a mounted RCMP officer in a detailed side profile. The dual dates "1873-1973" prominently displayed on the reverse highlight the centennial milestone of this iconic Canadian institution, commonly known as the "Mounties."ย
The 1973 Canadian 25 cent coins hold a unique place in numismatic history, primarily due to their special commemorative design and the intriguing variations of the Small Bust and Large Bust obverses. These variations, coupled with the historical significance of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) centennial celebration, make the 1973 Canadian Quarters a fascinating subject for collectors and enthusiasts alike.ย
