Northwest Territories’ Provincial 25-cent coin depicts an inukshuk, one of many erected by the Inuit in the treeless lands of the North. These cairns were most commly used as landmarks for boat or sled navigation, and they also played an important part in hunting caribou by directing the movement of herds.
The obverse design features Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at 64 years old, wearing a new crown, surrounded by the Latin inscription “ELIZABETH II D. G. REGINA”. This was the first effigy to be designed by a Canadian, Dora de Pédery-Hunt.
For the 125th Anniversary of Canada’s Confederation, twelve new 25-cent obverses were designed (one released each month) honouring the ten provinces and two terroitories.
Each roll contains 40 coins of Royal Canadian Mint issued 1992 (1867-) Canadian 25-Cent Northwest Territories Confederation 125th Anniv/Provincial Quarters in original unopened condition.
