Numismatic proof set in pure silver 2020Two Victory in Europe Day exclusives in one set. This seven-coin set is your only chance to get your hands on an exclusive, selective gold-plated version of the 2020 Proof Dollar. From the large Victory "V" on the reverse to the private label on the obverse, the enhanced Proof Dollar features several elements inspired by the 1945 Victory 5-cent coin. The same symbol also replaces the traditional beaver image on the set's 5-cent coin - another exclusive that immerses you in a historic moment.
For the 75th anniversary of VE Day, we're launching a collection of 2020 vintage products that tell several chapters of 1945 in Canadian history - a story of wartime contributions and peacetime legacies. Each coin in the collection - including the gold-plated version of the 2020 Proof Dollar included in this set - features a special private Victory mark.
The set has been one of our greatest successes every year since 1971. Continue the tradition by ordering today.

ANOTHER SET EXCLUSIVE. The 5-cent coin in the set is a rare replica of the 1945 Victory 5-cent coin.

A 50-CENT COIN. Canadian coins of all denominations are represented in the set - even the rare 50-cent coin.
A HOLOGRAPHIC SYMBOL. A holographic "V", the distinctive logo of our 2020 collection dedicated to VE Day, extends the coin's celebrations all the way to the protective box.
