Canada: 2025 $20 Allegories of Justice and Truth Pure Silver Coin

Design: The coin’s reverse is an engraved version of the 3D allegorical representations of Justice and Truth featured on the 2025 $50 Allegories of Justice and Truth coin designed by Canadian artist Rebecca Yanovskaya. Inspired by Walter S. Allward’s statues Ivstitia (Justice) and Veritas (Truth) located in front of the Supreme Court of Canada building in Ottawa, the gold-plated figures of Justice and Truth are surrounded by a laurel wreath while standing on a podium marked with the letters “SC” (for “Supreme Court”)—a nod to the Cormier Emblem, the Supreme Court’s historic badge, on the institution’s 150ᵗʰ anniversary. The emblem also inspired the laurel wreath that encircles Justice and Truth, who has extended her arm to support Truth while holding forth the Sword of Justice. On the outer ring, laurel branches unfurl around the figures, protecting and emboldening them to fulfill their purpose, while a scroll banner bears the words “JUSTITIA ET VERITAS”—the name of the allegories, but also the Court’s motto. The obverse features the gold-plated effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
