Behind the torch, the “V” has a double meaning as both a representation of Sir Winston Churchill’s famous V for Victory sign and as the Roman number for the coin’s face value. Two maple leaves stand on either side of the V. Along the original coin’s 12 flat edges, the rallying cry “We Win When We Work Willingly” was engraved in Morse code and has been replicated here along this coin’s round rim updated to also include the message in French.
Throughout its history, each transformation of the nickel offers a glimpse into a young nation striving to define itself. The "Legacy of the Canadian Nickel" series is a retrospective on the history of 5-cent coins minted by the Royal Canadian Mint. It continues the series with a design that was used from 1922 until 1936, a design of two maple leaves that garnered the nickel nickname.
