Soon after its 1982 release, Trivial Pursuit took the world by storm when everyone seemed to be clamouring to play the Canadian invention that put their general knowledge to the test! Through this colourful piedfort, the Royal Canadian Mint proudly celebrates the 35th anniversary of a classic board game whose worldwide success has made it a household name.
SPECIAL FEATURES
DESIGN
The reverse design pays tribute to the enduring popularity of Trivial Pursuit, its Canadian origins, and its 35-year history as one of the top-selling board games in the world. The piedfort offers nearly double the thickness of traditional coins, allowing for high-relief engraving to capture the look and feel of a player’s rounded game piece, as viewed from above. The raised elements mimic the appearance of the six individual wedges that complete this game-winning piece, while the application of coloured enamel recreates the iconic colours of each question category: History (yellow), Geography (blue), Entertainment (pink), Arts & Literature (purple), Science & Nature (green), and Sports & Leisure (orange). The reverse also features the iconic “TRIVIAL PURSUIT” logo engraved between the commemorative dates “1982” and “2017”, along with the word “CANADA” and the face value “25 DOLLARS”. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
