Picked up a 2023 gift set from the local post office today because I heard they still has QEII's effigy but with the double dates of her reign. Sure enough. Here's a pic. Do you think these coins will go into circulation,
Unless someone breaks open one of these sets and spends it at the local Dep or Tim's, you won't see them.
According to the set's description from the Mint:
"As we focus our attention on commemorating the reign of Queen Elizabeth II (1952-2022), the Mint will not be issuing any 2023-dated Canadian circulation coins featuring both the traditional reverse designs and an obverse featuring Queen Elizabeth II. Instead, we are offering a collector's edition of these annual issues that have been struck in limited numbers. These are non-circulation coins, meaning they are legal tender but not intended for general circulation. "
