Your 2024 Birthday Gift Card Set comes in colourful gift card packaging, with an envelope enclosed for presenting or mailing your personalized gift. Inside the card, all five coins are set in a blister pack.

NEW EFFIGY

The 2024 Gift Card Sets are the first sets to feature 2024-dated uncirculated Canadian coins with the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III.

A BEAVER MASCOT FOR 2024

The $1 coin in each 2024 Gift Set (Baby, Birthday, Holiday and O Canada) features a cute and fun beaver design that reflects the set’s theme. An official emblem of Canada, the hard-working beaver is a cultural icon and an important part of this country’s identity.

A BIRTHDAY TRADITION

A great gift option for all ages! Buy an extra set (or two) and set them aside—with a little advance planning, you could have birthdays covered for the whole year!

DID YOU KNOW?

Regardless of age, the “party animal” on the $1 coin shouldn’t have any trouble biting down on birthday treats! A beaver’s teeth grow continuously throughout their 10- to 12-year (on average) lifespan, but a daily habit of gnawing on wood is the secret to keeping those sharp incisors trimmed to manageable length.

The $1 coin in the 2024 Birthday Gift Card Set features a special-themed reverse design by Canadian artist Steve Hepburn. The scene shows a beaver surrounded by gifts and balloons and wearing a party hat, and presumably making a wish before blowing out the candles on a birthday cake. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
