Bonjour,

J'ai trouvé cette médaille/jeton dans ma collection. je ne me souviens plus d'où ça vient. J'ai l'impression que c'est en lien avec le lancement du 2$ en 1996, mais il n'y a rien de spécifié:





Avez-vous de l'information à ce sujet?

Merci.

Royal Canadian Mint Bi-metallic medal features inlaid technology
Medal depicts same bear design that appears on $2 coin.
By Richard Giedroyc, Coin World Staff

It's not a coin, but a Royal Canadian Mint's recent ringed Bi-metallic
medal depicting a bear as seen on the reverse on the $2 ringed Bi-metallic
coin uses technology not used anywhere on coinage -- an observe center
inlaid into an outer ring with a hole that does extend trough to other side
of the ring.
The observe of the medal appears to be another version of the ringed
Bi-metallic $2 coin of Canada. The undated medal has an outer diameter of
36 millimeter, with the core 23.88 mm in diameter. The ring is composed of
"coinage bronze" with the center core composed of nickel. The medal differs
from Canada $2 coin in that it appears to be ringed only on the observe.
The bear on the core of the medal is surrounded by 24 maple leaves on the
ring on the medal. The bear depicted at center is the same design as that
appearing on the 2$ coin introduced in 1996, according spokesman Pierre
Morin. Morin said the matrix had to be redone to accomodate the design
element on the larger medal.
The medal, which weights 31.45 grams (the center weights 5.05 grams) is
introduced by geing struck twice with 145 tons of pressure, according to
Morin.
The reverse of the medal is completly copper composition as the ring does
not come completly through the planchet. The reverse has the legend royal
canadian mint in English and French about the rim, with the facsimille
signature of Danielle V. Wetherup as RCM president at center above the mint
loge.
Morin said the planchet in which the inner core is seated is the same
planchet used for the previous Remembrance and Peace madels. The center
core is inserted at the RCM and the medal is struck in one stroke.
Expansion and medal flow lock the center within the ring.
The undated bear/Mint president medal is sold for $4.95 in the boutiques at
the Ottawa and Winnipeg RCM facilities. Both facilities have tours. The
medal is not available by mail.
