The obverse effigy of Her Majesty QEII is by Canadian artist Susanna Blunt, not Susan Blunt. She does not use a nickname.

And F D for “Defender of the Faith” is sometimes included since Her Majesty QE II is the head of the Church of England (Anglican Church) – the official religion of the UK “Royals”. Who says Latin is a dead language?!

OK, I’m being a nit-picky numismatic nerd here … “D G Regina” is linguistically a single phrase rather than two separate parts (D G “and” Regina), being the familiar abbreviation for the Latin “Dei Gratia Regina” or “Queen by the Grace of God”

The Canadian half dollar is no longer made for circulation – but is available from the RCM in circulation-quality rolls at a premium price. The half dollar is also available in their annual Uncirculated Mint set, clad Proof set & silver Proof set.
Just like in the USA – the Kennedy half dollar hasn’t been made for circulation since 2002, but is still available in special annual US Mint products.
