To celebrate the new millennium, Canada created a two year circulating commemorative program that would be conducted in two parts (one in 1999 and one in 2000). Each program released 12 quarters per year (1 per month) and each featured a unique design. The Pioneer Spirit Millennium Quarter features pioneers who came to Canada from other countries to enjoy prosperity and new beginnings.
