The first Canadian coins bearing the face of King Charles will soon be circulated across the country.
The Royal Canadian Mint in Winnipeg is set on Tuesday to unveil its King model that will appear on a portion of all Canadian coins.
The monarch’s effigy is also to be struck on a loonie for the first time at the Mint.
The Mint said a small amount of 2023 dated coins with the King will circulate in early December.
Coin exchanges are scheduled to take place later in the month at the Mint’s Ottawa and Winnipeg boutiques.
The image features the work of Canadian portrait artist Steven Rosati, who has designed other coins for the Mint, including six silver National Hockey League goalie coins.
Earlier this year, the federal government ordered the Mint and Bank of Canada to replace the image of the late Queen Elizabeth II with one of the King on its coins and the $20 bill.
