Officially recognized as a Canadian symbol in 1975, Castor canadensis—better known as the beaver—has long symbolized Canada’s pioneering spirit and our deep connection to this land. Throughout our history, it has evolved from being a vital economic asset to becoming a proud emblem of Canadian sovereignty.

In 2025, the 50th anniversary of the National Symbol of Canada Act (1975) serves as a moment to reflect on the beaver’s incredible legacy. Its likeness is captured on this Special Edition Proof Dollar, where it is surrounded by branches of maple leaves that reflect the beaver’s importance to our nation’s story and identity.
