 Launch includes new innovative "sculpture" series honoring five pillars of Canadian wildlife


With the end of the year just around the corner, the Royal Canadian Mint has launched a wide variety of keepsakes to appeal to a range of collectors, from Canada’s renowned wildlife to unique anniversaries. One of the many standouts is a new series of five coins each featuring a meticulously crafted sculpture mounted on its surface to bring unprecedented dimension and look and feel to the design. The first $100 fine silver coin in the series features the mighty grizzly bear – and the rush for this collection is fierce!
