2025 Canada $20 Animal Portraits: Polar Bear - 1 oz Fine Silver Coin
Venture north with the first of our Animal Portraits featuring close-up views of animal icons.
Step into the wild, or let it come to you, with the new Animal Portraits series of selectively gold-plated 99.99% pure silver coins! This first coin travels to Canada’s Arctic region for a view of the great northern bear: Ursus maritimus, better known as the polar bear, the largest of Canada’s four resident bear species. This coin’s reverse offers a rare close encounter with this revered Arctic emblem, unguarded and seemingly unaware of the viewer’s presence, as it casually steps out of the framed centre portion.
A new wildlife series begins.
Features
- Coin #1 of 3. NEW in 2025! The three-coin Animal Portraits series zooms in on some of Canada’s most magnificent wildlife species, captured in an unguarded moment and in a natural setting.
- Beyond boundaries. The polar bear on your coin’s reverse can’t be contained within the frame, it’s stepping out of the centre portion. This helps blur the boundary between humans and the natural world, and brings you closer to this mighty Arctic species.
- Limited mintage. Crafted in 1 oz. of 99.99% pure silver, your coin has a limited mintage of 7,500. A fun addition to any nature- or Canadiana-themed collection!
- Collect the series. While all three Animal Portraits coin are available for individual purchase, a subscription guarantees a complete set and unlocks a special exclusive: a free clamshell case that ships with your first coin and holds all three coins together.
- Coin 1: Polar Bear
- Coin 2: Elk
- Coin 3: Grey Wolf
- Includes serialized certificate. The Royal Canadian Mint certifies all of its collector coins.
- No GST/HST.
Design
The reverse design by artist Trevor Tennant features an engraved portrait of the polar bear (Ursus maritimus), surrounded by yellow gold plating. Moving across the snow-covered ice that lies at the sea’s edge, the polar bear looks off to the side as it steps out of the central portion of the design, placing its forepaws onto the outer portion where “CANADA” and “2025” are engraved. The obverse features the gold-plated effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
Packaging
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a black Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box.
