Found this Canadian Penny today has 2 dates on it?

Also found this Canadian Penny today which I forgot to post with my other. It has 2 dates on it 1867 - 1992. Has anyone ever found one like this. It must be some 125 th anniversary coin I would think. Never saw one before, and I have dug up a lot of Canadian coins in my years. Any info would be appreciated Thanks Shane. Hope the pic is clear enough to see the dates.

Looks like it would be an anniversary coin. Like our 1776-1976 Bicentenial Quarter.

1992 was Canada's 125th anniversary of confederation, so most 1992 coins were double dated, with "1867 - 1992". Otherwise, the design remained the same, and in 1993 the single dating resumed.

That looks kind of rare from what I'm looking at in this book. There's supposed to be a dove on the back not the leaf.Composition Bronze: Subject Confederation Centennial. Obv Designer: Arnold Machin Reverse: Dove with wings spread Rev Designer: Alex Coville. Mintage 345,140,645.

The 1992 cent was dated 1867-1992 for Canada's 125th birthday. Mintage 673,512,000.
