Description from the seller
To celebrate the new millennium, Canada created a two-year circulating commemorative program that would be conducted in two parts (one in 1999 and one in 2000). Each program released 12 quarters per year (1 per month) and each featured a unique design.

2000 features designs representative of Canada’s dreams for a new millennium. A second design contest was held and over 66,000 designs were submitted for consideration.
