1961 Canada Voyageur Silver Dollar - Stunning High-Luster Original Specimen
Capture a shining monument of North American numismatic history with this gorgeous 1961 Canadian "Voyageur" Silver Dollar. Struck at the historic Royal Canadian Mint in Ottawa, this coin represents the era of circulating silver coinage before base metals took over the global market. The obverse showcases Mary Gillick's classic first portrait of a young Queen Elizabeth II, while the reverse features Emanuel Hahn's iconic design of a voyageur and an Indigenous guide paddling a canoe past a wind-swept island under the shimmering Northern Lights. For over six decades, this silver dollar has witnessed a rapidly shifting modern world, carrying the heritage of Canada's vast wilderness right into your palm. Boasting a remarkably sharp strike, brilliant reflective surfaces, and captivating light blue-violet iridescent toning around the outer rims, this exceptionally preserved specimen makes an unforgettable addition to any collection or investment portfolio. Don't miss your chance to own a real piece of history from Gold & Silver Assay and Jewelry Company.
