About the King Charles III Coronation Medal听
This Canadian commemorative medal has been created to mark His Majesty King Charles III鈥檚 Coronation on May 6, 2023. The King Charles III Coronation Medal is a visible and tangible way to recognize 30 000 outstanding individuals of all ages and from all听walks of life听who have made a difference in their communities.听听
To ensure the broadest possible recognition, several partners, including the RAIC, were invited to nominate candidates from their communities or organizations for this national听honour. We invited RAIC members to nominate their peers, who are also members, for this recognition.听
This medal program is administered by the Chancellery of Honours, as part of the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General (OSGG).听
