This limited edition coin presentation features an uncirculated 2013 50¢ piece and a swatch of Canada’s Official National Tartan, the Maple Leaf Tartan. The maple leaf tartan is comprised of colours symbolizing the changing colours of the maple leaf through the seasons.
DID YOU KNOW? The Maple Leaf Tartan was declared an official national symbol on March 9, 2011. Created in 1964 by David Weiser, the Maple Leaf Tartan was designed in anticipation of the 100th anniversary of Canada’s confederation in 1967. Inspired by the colours of the maple leaf through the changing seasons, the tartan’s pattern incorporates the green of summer leaves, the gold of early autumn, the red of the first frost and finally, the brown tones of the fallen leaves before winter.
