2011 Canada $5 Wolf 1oz Pure Silver Coin

The Canadian Timber Wolf coin is the first coin released in the Royal Canadian Mint’s “Canadian Wildlife Series” program.

This coin consists of 1 troy oz. of .9999 fine silver bullion and is $5 legal tender in Canada. The obverse features Queen Elizabeth II as designed by Canadian artist Susanna Blunt along with the words “ELIZABETH II,” the coin’s value and 2011.

A highly-detailed and statuesque wolf gazing ahead highlights the reverse, which was designed by senior engraver, William Woodruff. The wolf stands under a full moon with pines in the distance, along with the inscriptions of the words “CANADA,” “9999” and “FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR.”

While the 2011 Canadian Silver Wolf depicts the image of a wolf, you’ll need to find the predator within yourself to capture this popular coin before investors and collectors wipe out its availability. With just one million minted, it will only be available for a short time.
