Canada, 25 cents, 2000, Ni, Freedom - 2000, Elizabeth II. Designed by Kathy Vinish, the coin honours Canada’s founding values of freedom, peace and security which will guide our children to a bright future. The children symbolize our future; hands upraised in joy and freedom, yet joined in unity. They are faceless as they represent children of all ages and races that make up our country.
