The collection includes two of the original style large cents in a two-ounce format, plus three different versions of the small cent in a one ounce format. The designs are based on the changing faces of Canada’s one cent piece from its first striking in 1908 to the final issue of the denomination in 2012.
Designs featured in this set include: Small Leaves, Godless, Two Leaves, Rock Dove, and Maple Twig.
