DETAILED DESCRIPTION:

This is a 1974 "Winnipeg Centennial" commemorative Canadian dollar in Uncirculated condition — a landmark coin celebrating the 100th anniversary of the city of Winnipeg, Manitoba. Struck in 100% nickel, this large dollar displays strong mint lustre with no signs of circulation or handling wear.

Issued by the Royal Canadian Mint, this coin marks a century since Winnipeg was incorporated as a city in 1874 — a fitting tribute to one of Canada's most historically significant prairie cities and a major hub of Canadian commerce and culture. The reverse features a striking commemorative design depicting the Winnipeg skyline with the legislative building and the famous Golden Boy statue atop the Manitoba Legislature, set against a backdrop evoking the city's rich prairie heritage.

This was the first Canadian dollar to move away from the traditional voyageur design in favour of a commemorative theme, making it a notable transitional piece in Canadian numismatic history and a popular collector favourite.

Obverse: Effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin
Reverse: Winnipeg Centennial commemorative design — city skyline with Legislative Building
