Designed by Canadian artist Joel Kimmel, your coin combines skilful engraving with the application of vibrant colour in a dynamic design that celebrates the history of the Toronto Blue Jays^TM. A wave comprised of the team's official colours conveys energy and motion in the background, which provides a colourful contrast to the silhouette of a baseball player who has just hit the ball—a reminder of the many homeruns throughout the Jays' history. Next to the player is a large engraved "40", which commemorates the 40th season of play since Toronto was granted its MLB franchise in 1976. To the right of the player is the official logo of the Toronto Blue Jays^TM.

• A very Canadian start: A snowstorm started just before the Jays' very first home game at Toronto's Exhibition Stadium on April 7, 1977, but the freezing temperatures didn't slow down the home team—they won 9-5 against the Chicago White Sox^TM, thanks in part to Doug Ault's two home runs.
• The initial plan to bring MLB baseball to Toronto involved the relocation of the San Francisco Giants^TM—the team would have been known as the Toronto Giants!
• Over 30,000 entries were submitted during a "Name the Team" contest held in June and July 1976, resulting in more than 4,000 suggested names! From that list, specially appointed panels of judges selected 10 names to submit to the Board of Directors, who, on August 12, 1976, announced the team would be officially known as the Toronto Blue Jays^TM Baseball Club.
• Since the "Blue Jays" name was submitted by 154 people, a draw was held to select the grand prize winner,who won a pair of season tickets for the team's inaugural season and an all-expenses paid trip to watch the club in action during Spring Training inDunedin, Florida.
• When it opened on June 3, 1989, SkyDome (renamed the Rogers Centre in 2005) was the first stadium to feature a motorized, fully retractable roof and an adjoining hotel with rooms overlooking the field.
• Only 16 years after their debut, the Blue Jays made history in 1992 by becoming the "youngest" expansion team in American League history to win the pennant, and the first non-American team in MLB history to win the World Series!
• The team's first mascot, BJ Birdy, was introduced in 1979but replaced in 1999 with Ace, who has been entertaining the home crowd ever since! 
• A 12-time All-Star and 10-time Gold Glove winner, second baseman Roberto Alomar was the first Blue Jay to be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame and is still the only player to have his number retired by the organization. Fans attending a Jays home game can see his number 12 hanging above the video board!
