Greatness cast in gold: Honouring 50 years of the CN Tower.

Soaring above Toronto’s skyline, the CN Tower stands as more than an engineering feat—it is a testament to Canadian ingenuity and vision, beautifully captured on this 99.99% pure gold coin. Since its opening in 1976, Canada’s tallest tower has transcended its original role as a telecommunications structure to become a defining landmark, both for Toronto and Canada. On your coin’s reverse, it seems to rise even higher—radiating pride for the 50 years since this Canadian icon first opened and echoing the determination and innovative spirit that have shaped Canada’s story.

Inspiring wonder since 1976.

DID YOU KNOW?

Today, the CN Tower is best known as a world-class tourist attraction that draws nearly 2 million visitors each year, but it was originally conceived as a state-of-the-art telecommunications tower to boost broadcast signals across Toronto. Construction began on February 6, 1973, with its distinctive Y-shaped concrete core rising steadily through a continuous slipform process. Just two years later, in March 1975, a helicopter lifted the antenna into place, bringing the Tower to its full height of 553.33 metres (1,815 feet).

Steven Rosati

The reverse design by Canadian artist Neil Hamelin commemorates the 50th anniversary (“1976-2026”) of the opening of the CN Tower by featuring an upwards perspective of Canada’s tallest landmark. From this low-angle view, the Tower’s height and elegance are emphasized, its soaring form accentuated by the elongated silhouettes of nearby buildings. Bathing in golden light the maple leaf’s tip and stem echo the shadow cast by the Tower—a powerful reflection of Canadian pride and spirit. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.

Neil Hamelin, Artist

“For this design, I chose to draw an upward perspective of the CN Tower to emphasize its majestic height. For its shadow, I created a large, iconic maple leaf in the background, using the tip and stem of the leaf to imitate the shape of the Tower itself. I felt that this composition evokes a strong and proud sense of Canadian identity.”

“Bringing this product to life has been a true privilege! Created to commemorate 50 years of the CN Tower—an engineering marvel and enduring symbol of Canadian pride—this design is more than a collectible; it’s a tribute to legacy, innovation, and national identity. The fusion of architectural form, Toronto’s skyline, and the eleven-pointed maple leaf reflects both Canada’s spirit and the collaboration that shaped this vision. Working alongside the talented artist Neil Hamelin and our dedicated team at the Mint, together, we’ve crafted a piece for collectors who see meaning in design, artistry in detail, and identity in the landmarks that inspire us.”
