2018 $8 1.25oz Silver Bison Coins - Tube of 20
Product Details
The Royal Canadian Mint built its reputation on .9999 fine Silver, and this unconventionally sized release carries that standard forward. Struck at 1.25 oz — a weight you rarely see in the sovereign bullion market — each coin bears a commanding close-up portrait of the North American bison.
Coin Highlights:
- Tube of 20 coins - Original Mint Packaging
- Contains 1.25 oz of .9999 fine Silver.
- Low anticipated mintage from the Royal Canadian Mint.
- Radial line security enhancements on both sides, paired with a reeded edge, give the coin a distinctive shimmer and an added layer of authentication.
- Obverse: Susanna Blunt's portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, with the $8 (CAD) face value.
- Reverse: A detailed close-up of the bison, with weight and purity inscribed below.
Between the off-standard weight, the limited mintage, and the Mint's engraving work, this is a piece that stands apart in a tray of standard one-ounce rounds. Add the 2018 Canada 1.25 oz Silver Bison to your cart today.
About the Bison
Bison bison is North America's heaviest land animal. For thousands of years, the species and its ancestors ranged across the heart of the continent — from present-day Alaska through the Canadian prairies and American Midwest, south into central Mexico, and east toward the Appalachians.
