In 1967, Canada celebrated the centennial of its confederation by issuing a commemorative coin that turned out to be the nation's last circulating silver dollar. The Canada Goose Dollar — featuring an exquisite engraving of a goose in flight — was part of a special series of wildlife coins. Though it became one of the most popular coins ever issued in Canada, many of these "geese" ended up in melting pots in 1979 and 1980 when silver reached $50 an ounce. Today, these one-year-only commemorative silver dollars are much more scarce than many collectors realize. This coin is Canada's premier commemorative issue coin. Its beautiful, clean and distinctly Canadian design make this silver dollar a must-have among collectors of Canadian and wildlife coins.
