SILVER .800 FINE SILVER

Canada's last true silver dollar

Minted from 1935 to 1966 by the Royal Canadian Mint, these classic coins are the last 80% pure silver dollars minted for regular issue by the Canadian government. They feature the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II of England on the obverse, and the image of two intrepid explorers, known as “voyageurs,” paddling a birchbark canoe, on the obverse. The vertical lines above the voyageurs represent the Northern Lights. These lovely coins represent the end of the real silver era and are difficult to find in any real quantity today
