For 150 years, the Supreme Court of Canada has stood as a guardian of justice, upholding the rule of law and fostering public trust as the nation’s highest court. To mark this milestone, the 2025 4.6 oz Fine Silver Coin – Allegories of Justice and Truth honors the Court’s legacy and its guiding principles of Justitia et Veritas—Justice and Truth.
Inspired by Walter S. Allward’s statues that stand sentinel outside the Court building in Ottawa, this dual-sided design presents a modern tribute to the timeless guardians of Canada’s legal system. Within the coin’s open core, Justice and Truth are cast in 99.99% pure silver and selectively plated with yellow gold, their figures facing outward in perfect harmony. Justice, standing tall, is supported by Truth, who ensures balance and stability as they work together to safeguard fairness for all.
This masterful creation continues the celebrated allegories series, following the 2023 Allegory of Peace (winner of the Coin of the Year Award – Most Inspirational Category) and the 2024 Allegory of Freedom.
