2000 CANADIAN 25-CENT CREATIVITY/OCTOBER MILLENNIUM QUARTERS SERIES ORIGINAL COIN ROLL
CREATIVITY - EXPRESSION FOR ALL TIME - OCTOBER

 

Design features the celebration of history and future promise of Canadian art.

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.

1999 features designs representative of Canada's past. In an open design contest called “Create a Centsation” over 33,000 designs were submitted for consideration.

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.

 

Packaging

Each roll contains 40 Royal Canadian Mint issued 25-cent coins for circulation in October 2000.
