Description
Invest in a classic mid-90s specimen with this 1994 Proof-Like (PL) Canadian Penny. Following the commemorative excitement of the early 90s, the 1994 issue stands as a pillar of consistency in Canadian numismatics, featuring the iconic “Crowned Queen” portrait and the 12-sided rim that collectors have come to love.
Struck with the Royal Canadian Mint’s specialized Proof-Like dies, this coin offers a high-relief strike and a brilliant, mirror-like finish that puts standard uncirculated strikes to shame.
Key Highlights:
-
Premium Proof-Like Luster: Brilliant, reflective fields that beautifully contrast the satin-finish of the dual maple leaves.
-
The “Crowned Queen” Portrait: Features the detailed 3rd effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing the George IV State Diadem.
-
Dodecagonal Heritage: Showcases the distinct 12-sided rim, providing that unique tactile feel and sharp visual geometry.
-
Exceptional Purity: Composed of 98% copper—part of the final generation of high-copper Canadian cents before the permanent shift to plated steel.
