By day, its silhouette inspires; by night, it lights up Toronto’s heart. Celebrate 50 years of the CN Tower’s official opening and experience its dual beauty with this fine silver coin, which shifts from a sky-high view to that of an illuminated Tower under black light! Spanning 50 years of innovation and engineering excellence, the reverse design invites you to see the city through the eyes of those who have gazed from the Main Observation Level, the most visited viewing platform at 346 metres high. Under black light (included), the image reveals another view familiar to anyone who’s ever looked up in awe—the CN Tower colourfully aglow, painting Toronto’s night sky with the spirit of Canada itself.

Experience the views, the lights.
