The 5 oz. Pure Silver Polar Bear Coin is not a traditional representative of collectible coins. This Canadian silver coin keeps to the round form but has jagged edges and resembles an ancient piece from the Roman age. Of course, the minting of the coin is exceptional, as this is one of the signature coins of the Royal Canadian Mint. There are only 1,200 coins produced, and the Mint is already running low on supply, so don’t hesitate and grab yours. Below you’ll see a detailed description of this amazing numismatic masterpiece.

Specifications of the 5 oz. Pure Silver Polar Bear Coin

This is a perfect example of innovation and experimentation working out for the minting world. To achieve the specific jagged edge of the Silver Polar Bear Coin, the Royal Canadian Mint decided to employ the capabilities of engineering design and Virtual Mining. These revolutionary techniques allow for the coin to retain its stability and strength, while the edge is not in the traditional round shape. The jagged edges are purposefully designed to resemble the edges of glaciers, the natural habitat of the Polar Bear.

To completely immerse the observer into the polar world, the Royal Canadian Mint went a step further and engraved waves around the bears.  This is another unique feature of the coin. Additionally, the Mint designed an “ice frame” of engraved ice pieces surrounding the bears on both sides of the coin, so that the polar atmosphere is complete.

Other than the artistic design of the coin, it is an impressive piece of silver as well. This coin is completely composed of 99.99% pure silver, which makes it a very valuable collectible.

The symbolism behind the bears

This coin is a very suitable gift for your next family celebration, as it holds a ton of symbolism and hidden meanings. The polar bear is a long-lasting representation of the Arctic region, with its harsh climate and endless wilderness. Because of this, the polar bear is perceived to be one of the most solid, dedicated and ferocious animals. This means that you can give this coin as a representation of your admiration for someone and help them to start their own personal collection with a unique coin matching their character.

However, not everything about this coin is a representation of coldness. The depicted mother and cub polar bears are a symbol for the warmth and connection of family, and the irreplaceable presence of motherly love. This means that this will also make a perfect gift for a woman’s birthday or any other special occasion.

To completely convey the symbolism behind the imagery, the Royal Canadian Mint has decided to add additional texture and engraving to the techniques of minting this coin. These add a sense of reality and add value to the coin and enhance the power of the symbolism hidden in the pictures.

This amazing collectible is presented in a stylish clamshell box. The packaging of this special silver Canadian coin brings additional value to the whole purchase and is a great finish to the perfect gift. To fully appreciate the beauty of the 5 oz. Pure Silver Polar Bear Coin you must make sure your purchase will be processed by a professional dealer. Colonial Acres is one of the trusted partners of the Royal Canadian Mint, and we will be able to guide you through this purchase. Our extensive catalogue will also allow you to purchase more certified Royal Canadian Mint coins needed to complete your collection.
