Description of the room

This 2022 Canadian $2 coin (Toonie) is the coloured version of the commemorative issue celebrating the 50th anniversary of the legendary 1972 Summit Series . The reverse features hockey players, with selective colour application (red and white) on the jerseys.

Its MS-68 (Mint State 68) certification places it in the "Superb GEM+" category. This grade is considered exceptional quality , showing only very slight microscopic imperfections that are not at all distracting. For a colored circulation coin, an MS-68 is a superior specimen that is very difficult to obtain.
