2016 Canada 1oz. Privy Mark 'Mark V Tank' $5 Silver Maple Leaf (No Tax). May be scratched/have marks.
Canadians fought alongside the first British Mark-series tanks to see action in the First World War, during the battle of Flers-Courcelette on the Somme in September 1916. In tandem with the crews of the Mark V iteration, they helped inflict on the German Empire one of its greatest defeats at Amiens in August 1918, "the black day of the German army." Now you too can study the crawling steel behemoth captured in fine silver on this special commemorative strike of the Silver Maple Leaf.
