2009 Canadian Loonie Coin - Official $1 Coin Design & Details #189045 (License: Personal Use)

This 2009 Canadian one-dollar coin, known as the Loonie, features a finely detailed common loon swimming on rippling water, with a stylized boreal forest of coniferous trees along the shoreline. The coin’s distinctive 11-sided shape and golden color come from its aureate-plated nickel composition, while raised lettering spells “CANADA” at the top and “DOLLAR” at the bottom, flanking the year “2009”. The loon’s feather pattern is rendered with a crosshatch texture for visual depth and authenticity.

Used on numismatic websites, coin collector databases, educational pages about Canadian currency, and retail listings for bullion or collectible coins; matches user intent for identifying, valuing, or learning about the Loonie’s design history.
