Five troy ounce, retro design pure silver dollar. With its excruciatingly low mintage of just 1,500! Canadas first circulating silver dollar was introduced in 1935 to mark the Silver Jubilee celebrations for King George V. Its design featured a voyageur and Native American. Paddling a canoe in tribute to the fur trade, the industry that founded the nation. The image of a vast untamed frontier it conveyed made it one of the most popular coin designs ever to enter circulation in Canada. The scene is illuminated from behind by the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis), which speak to the natural wonders. And grandeur of the vast country. The voyageur silver dollar was designed by renowned Toronto sculptor Emanuel Hahn, making it one of Canadas first domestically-designed coins and a great source of pride. Even though the Royal Canadian Mint had begun striking Canadas coins in 1908, the designs, tools and dies were still being produced by the Royal Mint in England. This was the case for the coins that were already in circulation when the voyageur silver dollar was introduced. While they were engraved by European sculptors, the presence of maple leaves in their designs hinted at an ever-expanding national identity for a young Canada. In 1935, the voyageur silver dollar brought the essence of the nations character to the forefront. It evoked the spirit of adventure that first lured explorers and voyageurs across the continent – an epic ideal that continues to inspire centuries later. The detail of the engraving is such that the letters HB for Hudson Bay Company can be seen on one of the trade bundles. Canada’s early history is one of exploration and discovery. Throughout North America the fur traders French. Who opened up the wilderness on the highways of water did more than just trap animals and sell their hides. They met with the Native Americans. Learned their languages and ways, and created maps where once there was just blank space on a map. The lure of wealth transcended class and social status as hundreds of men climbed aboard their canoes to head into the unknown for months, sometimes even years. Paddling up to 90 strokes per minute, they traveled thousands of miles, circumventing perilous rapids by loading each man with 200 lbs of cargo to carry across countless portages. Bear fat, corn, and pemmican were their staples and they had little more than the trees to shield them from the elements and the unrelenting flies. Technology Note – Gold Plating.

The reverse design features an outdoorsman and his dog paddling the Bow River in Alberta, while Canadian Pacifics famed 2816 Empress steam locomotive rides the tracks alongside the river. Rendered in exquisite detail, the image centers around the canoe carrying the outdoorsman and his husky upstream the sparkling Bow River so the canoeist could see the beautiful scenery one last time. The two face away from the viewer, heading toward a right-turn bend in the distance. The man paddles as his dog, standing at the bow, howls toward the train on the right side of the image.

On the shore, a three-gabled habitant-style house overlooks the water. Coin #6: Exquisite Ending.
