2022 $30 Red Knight

Before the Snowbirds, there was the Red Knight! From 1958 to 1969, the Red Knight delighted spectators in Canada and the United States with impressive aerobatics displays. The Royal Canadian Air Force's (RCAF) solo aerobatic jet aircraft was equipped with the T-33 Silver Star (or "T-Bird", CT-133) and, later, the CT-114 Tutor, which were adorned with a palette of bright colors, the emblematic red.

These planes, along with the distinctive knightly helmet emblem they wore, have been colorfully recreated on this 99.99% pure silver tribute to the legendary (and much-loved) Red Knight, whose spectacular maneuvers inspired a generation of air enthusiasts and enriched Canada's aviation heritage.
