The Coin Company is proud to present the 2025 Commemorative Collector Keepsake Card - Celebrating the Life and Art of Daphne Odjig by the Royal Canadian Mint.
The recipient of some of Canada’s highest honours, and the first First Nations woman artist to be represented on a Canadian circulation coin, Daphne Odjig and her art are honoured on the 2025 $2 commemorative coin that pays tribute to her legacy—as a creative force for change. There are two versions of the $2 Celebrating the Life and Art of Daphne Odjig, colourized and engraved only, and this affordably priced, two-coin Commemorative Collector Keepsake Card guarantees you’ll have both.
KEY FEATURES
- This is the first circulation coin to focus on the life and work of a First Nations woman
artist.
- The two coins come packaged together in a colourful folder that presents and explains the theme.
- Based on Odjig’s Folk Singer, which is representative of the bold line and colour work that characterized much of the artist’s work.
- The outer ring includes Odjig’s drawing of a fisher, as it appears above her signature on The Indian in Transition (1978), where it serves as a visual representation of her surname (the anglicized version of “Odjig” is “Fisher”).
- One of the most affordable collectibles issued by the Royal Canadian Mint in 2025.
