National Indigenous Peoples Day (June 21) celebrates the heritages, diverse cultures and outstanding achievements of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples in Canada.

To contribute to this important celebration, we are honoured to introduce the 2023 $2 National Indigenous Peoples Day commemorative circulation coin. An exceptional fusion of distinct artistic visions, the coin’s richly symbolic and meaningful design features the combined work of three artists— Megan Currie, English River First Nation, Myrna Pokiak (Agnaviak), Inuvialuit Settlement Region and Jennine Krauchi, Red River Métis. Their joint creation stunningly unites their expressions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis cultures, art and traditions, and is an open invitation to celebrate National Indigenous Peoples Day.
