Prince George's Birthday Marked With New Canadian Coins

New Coins Wish Prince George A Happy Birthday
The Huffington Post Canada

The Royal Canadian Mint is wishing Prince George a happy first birthday with the release of gold and silver coins that show four generations of the monarchy.

On the coins, which were unveiled Tuesday, George can be seen in his father Prince William's arms next to grandfather Prince Charles and great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II.

The gold coin costs $2799.95 and the silver coin costs $89.95, according to Mint spokeswoman Christine Aquino.

Last June, the U.K.'s Royal Mint released a sterling silver coin to celebrate George's birthday.

The Royal Canadian Mint also previously unveiled a series of coins when he was born last year.
