Comment

The Canadian Wildlife Silver Bullion Coins are a Royal Canadian Mint struck series containing reverse imagery dedicated to the abundant wildlife of Canada.

Coins in the series are each minted to the exacting standards collectors and investors have come to expect from the Royal Canadian Mint for their bullion products including a composition of .9999 fine silver.

The 2012 Canadian Cougar Silver Bullion Coin, although 2012-dated, it is issued for September 2011. The reverse design portrays the Canadian cougar with its front paws grasped on a fallen inclined tree limb baring its large teeth with an open mouth.

Interesting fact

The 2012 Canadian Silver Cougar $5 Coin is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation and was instead produced for collectors. It is made of 99.99% pure silver and weighs 31.11 grams. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, showcasing a cougar (also known as a mountain lion or puma) in a natural setting, making it a standout piece for collectors of Canadian wildlife coins.
