The Looney Tunes™ characters are some of the craziest and best-loved animated characters of all time. The first Looney Tunes™ short dates to 1929, although the first appearance of a major character recognizable today was by Porky Pig in 1935. Merrie Melodies were animated in full colour starting in 1934, a full nine years before Looney Tunes™.

The reverse of this coin features a scene from the 1957 Academy Award winning cartoon that pitted Sylvester against Tweety Bird. A colourized Sylvester looks sheepish as he has been busted in the act of grabbing Tweety Bird from a cage. The two characters featured together in 40 cartoons during the classic era of Looney Tunes™.

ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT

The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1998.
