The Coin Company is proud to present the 2025 $2 Honouring Canada’s Unknown Soldier Non-Colourized Special Wrap Roll by the Royal Canadian Mint.
Saluting the one who represents the many.
Few symbols are more sacred than the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and none more eloquently express the enduring consequences of war. The Unknown Soldier’s tomb is hallowed ground, and, every November 11, it becomes one of the focal points for our collective remembrance, grief and gratitude for Canada’s service members past, present, and future.
Designed by Mary-Ann Liu, sculptor of the tomb’s bronze relief, the 2025 $2 Honouring Canada’s Unknown Soldier Commemorative Circulation Coin calls all Canadians to remembrance. Each Special Wrap Roll gives you 25 struck (engraved only) coins featuring a view of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier—a symbol of remembrance for our fallen—backed by silhouettes of four sentries representing all Canadians who serve or have served.
A poignant tribute to service and sacrifice.
KEY FEATURES
- A view of the reverse 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 reverse 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.
- From the artist who designed the Tomb’s relief sculpture. The coin’s reverse was designed by Mary-Ann Liu, the B.C. artist who sculpted the bronze relief adorning the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a national site of mourning and the focal point of collective remembrance in Canada.
- A 25th anniversary. The $2 Honouring Canada’s Unknown Soldier commemorative circulation coin commemorates the 25th anniversary of the repatriation of Canada’s Unknown Soldier and the completion of their tomb at the National War Memorial in Ottawa. In the spirit of remembrance, the coin design honours those who serve, and those who have fallen.
- Same font. The words “TOMB OF THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER LA TOMBE DU SOLDAT INCONNU” are engraved in the same font that is etched on the tomb in Ottawa.
- Collect Canada’s circulation coins by the roll. Each Special Wrap Roll contains 25 struck (engraved only) $2 Honouring Canada’s Unknown Soldier commemorative circulation coins, which come in a custom paper wrap. A colourized Special Wrap Roll of selectively colourized $2 coins is also available—collect both versions!
- All are uncirculated coins. Inside each Special Wrap Roll, all 25 coins are uncirculated: they all have a newly minted quality and feature the same engraved design.
- Limited supply. Only 10,000 rolls available.
