The sixth and last coin in the Royal Canadian Mint's popular series celebrating Canadian wildlife, the 2013 Silver Bison Coin is struck in a limited edition 1,000,000 silver coin mintage.
The reverse surface of this fine .9999 silver bullion coin bears a striking relief image of a galloping wood bison by the coin designer Emily S. Damstra. Often mistaken identified as a 2013 Canadian Silver Buffalo Coin, this 2013 Canadian Silver Bison Coin celebrates the largest land mammal in North America. The wood bison occurs in its natural state only in Canada. In recent times, this handsome beast has been brought back from the brink of extinction by Parks Canada's conservation efforts. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II appears on the obverse surface of this legal tender Canadian silver coin whose silver bullion content and purity are guaranteed by the Government of Canada.
