Celebrate the remarkable legacy of Daphne Odjig (1919-2016), the visionary Anishinaabe artist and first First Nations woman on a Canadian coin, with this 2025 $2 Commemorative Collector Two Coin Set. The reverse of each coin features a colourized design inspired by her 1977 Folk Singer, showcasing a vibrant figure with a drum, complemented by an engraved fisher motif from her 1978 The Indian in Transition—a tribute to her name’s meaning. The obverse displays the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Steven Rosati, adding a regal contrast. Launched into circulation on September 4, 2025, with a limited worldwide mintage of 50,000 sets, this collection honors her pioneering role in Indigenous art.

Presented in an eye-catching keepsake card, this set includes two $2 coins—one colourized and one uncoloured—encased in a fold-out design with bilingual storytelling about Odjig’s life and impact. The card’s vivid artwork and informative text, paired with the Royal Canadian Mint’s iconic branding, make it a standout addition for collectors. Perfect for showcasing her cultural significance and artistic brilliance, this set is a must-have for numismatists and art enthusiasts alike.
