More About the Coin
The Sable Island horses have survived for generations in one of Canada's most remote and challenging environments. When plans to remove the horses from the island sparked widespread public opposition in 1960, Canadians' efforts helped secure their protection in 1961. Today, the horses remain a cherished Canadian icon and a symbol of strength, independence, resilience and survival.
