There's a new Canadian coin that has the sun and moon intertwined in the starry sky.
The Royal Canadian Mint just released this zodiac coin that features deep blue, metallic gold and shiny silver hues.
Canada's 2025 Zodiac Signs — 2 oz. Fine Silver Coin has a colour-over-engraved design enhanced with vibrant colours and metallic gold paint.
This new coin has a deep blue background for the night sky and shimmering golden stars.
It features three rings overlayed on the starry night sky that surround an intertwined sun and moon engraved at the centre of a celestial circle.
There are 30-degree sections for each of the 12 western zodiac signs: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces.
Each zodiac sign is represented by an engraved glyph on the inner ring.
There's a natural zodiac wheel encircling the glyphs — including a ram for Aries, a lion for Leo, a sea goat for Capricorn, and so on.
Then, there are the phases of the moon on the outer ring, each touched by rays of light radiating from the sun at the centre of the celestial circle.

The obverse of the coin features a wavy pattern behind the effigy of King Charles III.
Last year's zodiac coin still featured a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II even though coins with King Charles had started to be minted in 2023.

This is a non-circulation coin which means you have to buy it. You won't be able to find it in your change.
It has a face value of $30 and costs $259.95 to buy it online or at a Royal Canadian Mint boutique store.
The Royal Canadian Mint said that the zodiac coin is a popular theme each year and coins sell out quickly. There is a limited mintage of 4,000 Zodiac Signs — 2 oz. Fine Silver Coin.
