The 2014 Canadian Silver Woolly Mammoth Coin is available in proof condition and is the newest offering from the Royal Canadian Mint.
The mint has recently created these coins as the first addition to a new series called the “Prehistoric Animal Series.” Each coin is made up of .9999 pure silver and weighs one troy ounce. Aside from the silver purity, the coins carry a legal tender value of $20 CAD.
The 2014 Canadian Silver Woolly Mammoth coins are being minted in very limited numbers and only 7,500 coins are scheduled to be released. Accompanied with a display box and COA, these coins can make for a fine addition to any coin collection.
The obverse side of the coin features a woolly mammoth; an animal that is believed to have gone extinct around 10,000 years ago.
The ancient animal is featured walking through a mountainous landscape. Above this scene is the coin’s minting year and face value which reads “20 DOLLARS 2014.”
Below the animal are the coin’s silver content and purity which read “FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR.”
