2026 30th Anniversary of The Toonie Collectors Edition $2 Coin Roll | Royal Canadian Mint

Celebrate 30 years of the Toonie—a Canadian icon!

Mark a milestone in Canada’s currency history with a Special Wrap Roll of the 2026 Collector’s Edition Non-Circulation $2 coin, a special collectible not destined for your pocket change! Each Special Wrap Roll contains 25 of these double-dated $2 coins, each distinguished by the “W” mint mark of our Winnipeg facility—the place that has produced the Toonie since the coin denomination’s debut in 1996. Wrapped in premium paper, these $2 coins form a unique tribute to the mighty polar bear that captured the hearts of Canadians, and to the coin that changed our pocket change.

Honouring the 30th anniversary of a big change.

COIN HIGHLIGHTS

• A Toonie celebration. Celebrate 30 years of Canada’s beloved Toonie with the 2026 Collector’s Edition Non-Circulation $2 Coin! It’s more than just a coin—it’s a tribute to 30 years of history and innovation.
• Collect by the roll. Each Special Wrap Roll contains 25 $2 coins, all bundled together in a custom paper wrap.
• A collector exclusive. These coins are classified as collectibles and aren’t intended for circulation—you won’t find them in your pocket change.
• A view of the obverse design, visible on one or both ends of the roll. Each coin included in the Special Wrap Roll has a reverse and obverse design. The production process and quality assurance for uncirculated Special Wrap Rolls allows for either the obverse design on both ends, or the reverse design on one end and the obverse on the other. It is not possible for the Mint to guarantee or foresee which of the two versions will be shipped.
• Limited to 30,000 rolls. Perfect keepsake for collectors and proud Canadians alike!

MINTED IN WINNIPEG

Inside each Special Wrap Roll, every coin bears the “W” mint mark indicating it was proudly struck at our Winnipeg facility, which turns 50 in 2026. That “W” serves as a double celebration—for the Toonie that has only ever been minted in Winnipeg, and for the facility that has produced all of Canada’s circulation coinage since 1976.

DID YOU KNOW?

The Toonie’s polar bear has a name: Churchill. In 2006, we held a fun “Name Our Polar Bear” contest to mark the 10th anniversary of Canada’s first bi-metallic circulation coin, and Churchill won with 34 per cent of the votes. The runners-up? Wilbert and Plouf!

The reverse design by Canadian artist Brent Townsend features the classic image of an adult polar bear on an Arctic ice floe. Double-dated (“1996-2026”) to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Canada’s $2 coin, the obverse features the “W” mint mark of the Royal Canadian Mint’s Winnipeg facility and the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.

ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT

The Royal Canadian Mint is known as one of the most reputable mints in the world. The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1998.
