2017 1 oz Silver RCM 150 Special Edition Voyageur Coin

The 1 oz Silver Canada 150 Voyageur Coin is a fitting tribute to the nation’s rich history since Confederation.

The design is based on Canada’s first circulation silver dollar, released in 1935, which features a voyageur and an Indigenous person paddling a canoe. Between them is a wrapped bundle of fur marked with "HB" for the Hudson’s Bay Company. Pine trees and stylized vertical lines representing the northern lights appear in the background.

This commemorative coin includes advanced security features such as precision radial lines on both sides and a micro-engraved maple leaf.
