<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kvasir, post: 97522, member: 4139&quot;]Usually the English and French inscriptions on common Canadian coins happen to be identical hence usually Canadian coins only have English/French and Latin on. Note that the inscription about the Queen is in Latin: D.G. Regina for <i>dei gratia regina</i>. </p><p><br /></p><p>But plenty of couple of Canadian commemorative circulation coins have more than 2 languages on them. The April 1999 25 cent has English, French, Latin and Inutituk on it for example when the designer&#039;s initial appeared in her native Inutituk.</p><p><br /></p><p>Many of the 1992 circulation 25c series are trilingual when the province&#039;s/territory&#039;s name is distinct in English and French. </p><p>All of the 1999 (except for April) and the 2000 25c series are also trilingual when the name of the month (1999) and the millennium values (2000) are distinct in English and French. </p><p><br /></p><p>The 2004 colour quarters is trilingual when the inscription Remember/Souvenir appeared in English and French. </p><p><br /></p><p>The 1999 2$ coin is trilingual commemorating the creation of the territory of Nunavut. The name of the territory appeared in Inutituk and the rest of the coin is inscribed with English/French and Latin.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 2000 2$ coin is trilingual commemorating the millennium. The inscription <i>Knowledge/Le Savoir </i> is in English and French and the usual Latin for the Queen.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
