In 1976 Montréal became the first Canadian city to host the Olympic Games. The 21st Olympiad, held from July 17 to August 1, 1976, included memorable performances from many athletes, including Romanian gymnast Nadia Comaneci and American decathlete Caitlyn Jenner.

The Royal Canadian Mint started issuing commemorative coins in 1973 to honour the 21st Olympiad, which was to be held in Montreal, Quebec, and to help finance the games. The RCM issued 28 silver coins and 2 gold coins.

ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT

The Royal Canadian Mint is known as one of the most reputable mints in the world. The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. The Royal Canadian Mint is renowned for producing some of the highest quality and purity of gold and silver bullion coins and bars in the world. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1998.
