2026 Canada Special Edition Proof Silver Dollar - 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Queen Elizabeth II
From the Royal Canadian Mint—this 99.99% pure silver dollar marks the 100th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s birth by presenting a uniquely Canadian tribute: a representation of the Diamond Maple Leaf Brooch worn by Queen Elizabeth II as a symbol of her personal connection to Canada, accompanied by the Royal Cypher (top) that served as her personal device. A flourish of filigree crowns the noble leaf, symbolizing grace and heritage, and includes 13 maple leaves (one for each province and territory) that lie nestled in the filigree’s negative space—a subtle-but-profound tribute threaded through the artistry, much like Queen Elizabeth II’s steadfast presence in Canada’s story.
