The Colourized Special Wrap Roll can be purchased individually, but not the Non-Colour Special Wrap Roll—it’s only available as part of this set or with a subscription to the 2022 Special Wrap Roll Commemorative Collection.

Fifty years later, the intensity and excitement of the 1972 Summit Series between Canada and the Soviet Union (U.S.S.R.) still live on in the collective memory of Canadians, along with the heart, grit and determination demonstrated by members of Team Canada. Their legacy and team spirit are proudly honoured on the 2022 commemorative $2 circulation coins,
