This is the 1999 Canadian 25-cent coin for November, featuring an airplane to commemorate "Opens the North".
The November coin pays tribute to the bush plane and its role in providing access to Northern Canada.
The coin is part of the Royal Canadian Mint's 1999 "Our Children's Future" millennium program, which released a different 25-cent coin each month.
The design depicts a bush plane on skis, symbolizing the role of aviation in connecting and developing Canada's northern regions.
The initials "BRB" are visible on the lower right, indicating the designer, Bradley R. Black.
The Royal Canadian Mint held a public design contest called "Create a Centsation" to determine the designs for the 1999 series, which focused on different aspects of Canada's past.
