Incorporated in 1926, The Royal Canadian Legion rose from a variety of independent Veterans’ groups formed after the First World War to become a single, steadfast voice for those who served. A century later, 270,000 members carry that sacred mission with solemn pride, serving all Veterans, including serving military and RCMP members and their families, promoting Remembrance, and serving their communities and country.

Marking the centenary of The Royal Canadian Legion, the 2026 Fine Silver Proof Dollar pays tribute to Canada’s largest Veteran and community service organization—and to a lasting legacy of honouring past sacrifices while inspiring future generations.

A legacy etched in Remembrance.

• Marking The Royal Canadian Legion’s centennial. For 100 years, The Royal Canadian Legion has honoured Canada’s Veterans; in 2026, the Fine Silver Proof Dollar honours the Legion and its century of service and Remembrance.
