1 Cent - Elizabeth II Farewell to the Penny, Canada

Coin features G.E. Kruger-Grays iconic 1937 design that was used as the Canadian 1-cent piece reverse image from 1937 to 2012, with the sole exception of 1967. The image features two upright five-lobed maple leaves, the larger one on the right slightly overlapping the smaller leaf on the left. Both are attached by their stems to a small twig. The date of the pennys last production, 2012, is engraved just below and to the left of the central image. The word CANADA is engraved across the central bottom portion of the reverse field. Opposite this word, across the centre top portion of the coin, is the face value of 1 CENT. The reverse and obverse sides are framed with a beaded circle.
