2025 Canada $5 First Strikes: The Majestic Polar Bears Premium Bullion Pure Silver (No Tax)

Premium Bullion: The story continues, the purity and craftsmanship remain

The Majestic Polar Bear is a Premium Bullion in Special Packaging product – an investment-grade collectible coin that puts the purest precious metals in your hands - and First Strikes hold the distinction of having being struck on the first day of production.

Continuing the story from the mother-and-cub designs of 2023 and 2024, the 2025 edition finds the cub all grown up and on its own. As a result, the reverse of this 99.99% pure silver coin features just one paw print, a reflection of the bear’s independence and solitary nature.
