1 Cent Coin

The penny was Canada’s first official coin. For over 154 years, Canadians used the 1-Cent coin. The first-1 Cent coin was minted in 1858 which predates the country itself which did not enter into confederation until 1867. It wasn’t until well after Confederation that they would be minted on Canadian soil.

In 2013, the Royal Canadian Mint discontinued production of the Canadian penny, though the 1-cent coin in Canada is still considered legal tender and still very collectible today.
