2022 2 Dollars (Toonie) Commemorative "SUMMIT SERIES 50th ANNIVERSARY"

BU (MS-63) CHOICE


Description of the room

This 2022 Canadian $2 coin (Toonie) is the commemorative issue celebrating the 50th anniversary of the 1972 Summit Series . The reverse features a dynamic motif of hockey players.

Its certification with the MS-63 (Mint State 63) grade places it in the standard "CHOICE" category. It is a good quality uncirculated coin, but one that clearly shows a moderate number of minting or handling flaws inherited from the rolling process. This grade often marks the lower limit for collecting modern coins by grade.
