Product Details

The mid-20th century witnessed a remarkable era of coinage that continues to attract collectors and investors alike. Among the gems from this period are Canadian silver dollars minted between 1958 and 1967, celebrated for their 80% silver content. These coins stand out for their intricate designs and historical significance, offering a glimpse into Canada's rich cultural tapestry. Whether proof-like or Brilliant Uncirculated (BU), each piece embodies superior craftsmanship and attention to detail, making them highly sought after by numismatists and bullion aficionados.

The artistry behind these silver dollars is truly captivating. The obverse prominently features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by the acclaimed artist Mary Gillick. This depiction, characterized by its youthful yet regal appearance, marked a new era in Commonwealth coinage. On the reverse, the iconic voyageur design crafted by Emanuel Hahn, tells a story of Canada's early fur trade. The imagery of a canoe, paddled by a voyageur and an Indigenous guide amid a backdrop of Northern Lights, captures the spirit of cooperation and exploration foundational to Canadian heritage. The complexity and depth of these designs make them not only visually stunning but also laden with historical resonance.

Each coin was expertly struck at the Royal Canadian Mint, ensuring precise metal content and exceptional purity. These coins feature 80% pure silver, wrapped in a layer of artistic fineness that offers both intrinsic and aesthetic value. Known for their durability and brilliant shine, the proof-like specimens exhibit a mirrored finish that enhances every etched detail, bringing the rich history alive in the palm of your hand. Brilliant Uncirculated versions retain the crisp, original luster and showcase the precision of mid-century minting techniques.

The 1958-1967 Canadian silver dollar holds more than just collectible allure. For investors, its silver content represents a tangible hedge against inflation and currency fluctuations. Silver has maintained its importance as both an industrial metal and a refuge for value retention over centuries. Its affordability and global recognition mean it continues to stand as a staple for diversified investment portfolios. Moreover, the scarcity of pristine examples from these years adds an aura of exclusivity, often sparking competitive interest in the market.

With their historical charm and investment potential, these Canadian coins present a compelling addition to any collection. As part of your portfolio, they not only commemorate a fascinating chapter in Canadian history but also represent a smart, strategic asset in today’s financial environment.

Regarding the walking liberty halves, the distribution of dates was overwhelmingly in the 1940s and I was disappointed. Otherwise, accurate grades and good prices
