This 2013 Canadian loonie shows the classic 11-sided geometry with a subtle rim shift that’s visible along the obverse right side—evidence of minor die-alignment drift often seen on mid-2010s Royal Canadian Mint strikes. The obverse lettering displays light softness in the D·G·REGINA area, and the portrait shows the typical mid-die fatigue that gives the raised surfaces a slightly washed texture.

The reverse carries the same mint behavior: mild weakness in the tree line, soft ripple lines, and a bit of rim flattening between 3 and 5 o’clock. These are mint-era strike traits rather than post-mint errors, and they give the coin a bit of character without affecting its integrity.

Grade sits around EF40–45 with strong structure and moderate circulation wear.
Composition is the correct bronze-plated nickel (nickel core with copper/tin/aluminum plating), giving it the bright golden appearance.

A solid collector piece showing natural mint behavior and a clean, circulated look.
